Terrifyingly, the headless body is still blundering around in webland, causing
havoc. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but a "compelling web platform" is one
that allows you to build what the customer asks you to build - nothing more,
nothing less. It may not be pretty, but there we are.

Cristian, I'm not paying for it - the customers are. Who are you or I to
decry people's decisions - we don't know on what basis they arrived at that
decision. Do you never use something that you know will only last a year,
but is so priced that it still represents good value for money? Presumably
you don't - what a lucky (young?) fellow!

Well, you better start sending emails right now to all those web-hosters who
are still offering it. :-)
