You know there are static websites, right?

And I don't even mean generated static sites. I literally mean sites that don't need an API/DB/CMS because they are pure content and easy to manage in HTML?

Oh, say, for instance most sites hosted on GitHub Pages.

Resume sites. Portfolio sites. Restaurant sites. I can go on and on.

You don't need to over-engineer a 6 page restaurant site that hosts directions, menu, and simple things like that.

Don't overlook those pages -- they're still important and a big chunk of what the web is made of.

I find that unsustainable even for tiny restaurant sites.
For example, you likely have your contact info in the contact page and the footer of every page.
Assuming you at least keep your footers separate, that's still two places to change your phone number, working hours, etc.

And this isn't a root comment, this is a response to the person woeing over having to redo their markup for a restyle.

Well, guess what? CSS Garden doesn't work on real-life markup, only on intentionally superfluous one.
