Criticism and Responses
Unobtrusive JavaScript can take longer to develop and can be harder to read through later on as one would need to reference external code to find if an object is tied to any events. It also ends up causing effects similar to the flash of unstyled content, as page elements are rendered before the document finishes downloading and visibly modified later, especially on older web browsers that do not support DOMContentLoaded.

Famous quotes containing the words criticism and/or responses:
“To be just, that is to say, to justify its existence, criticism should be partial, passionate and political, that is to say, written from an exclusive point of view, but a point of view that opens up the widest horizons.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!”
—Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)
