Bad answer.
That, were it true, would not be a reason to user javascript but
rather an explanation for why I would be using it...

Never mind what they are "meant for" when the point is that they "are"

With no respect to other writer and opinions like these beeing spewed

Nope, actually if you compare lynx to a web browser that comes with
Contiki C-64 version (well, that's the only web browser I know that
exists for C-64 anyway...) you will find Lynx to be rather like a

I have no claims about this.
