How do you determine what's essential?
If I have a script on my site that implements page transitions (eg. when an internal link is clicked, fade out the old page and fade in the new page), is that essential or non-essential? It's a part of the site's design, however the site still functions without it.
It's a slippery slope.
It’s not even a slippery slope, it’s a giant cliff of unattended consequences. Innovation in web technology could be haunted by bureaucracy.
