> it still has several issues, like breaking other JS code° and we need backwards compatibility for deactivated JS

To be fair, only the fact that PM is almost devoid of any JS functionality (I'm only aware of two or three little snippets) makes it possible to plug-in an up-to-date framework now.

It would be far more difficult if we had to adopt any millennial JS code now.

This is an advantage we shouldn't loose, by keeping the raw HTML version functioning. Like this we'd be able to plug-in the next generation framework in a decade.
