Hey let's not lie to ourselves... most of those megabytes of JS are there to disable the copy functionality for anyone browsing our site.

Why? ... reasons. Someone in marketing said a thing once.

I once had to add in custom tab behavior because a green screen used to work in a specific way in an ordering page. The IBM system that we replaced only had a couple of users but was responsible for something like 30-40% of all orders in a small company. So in it went! Fun times.

Nothing has ever worked less than giving people text and getting mad when they have it. It was a joke on Geocities in the ninteteen goddamn hundreds, and yet people keep fuckin' trying.
