I think the presentation may fail to land because, on the surface, it is nearly wholly AI-generated, but also after reading through many of the entries, everything besides the Agent section seems to clearly communicate solid web hygiene and I wouldn't mind sending this to a burgeoning web developer. It is ironic though that the site itself fails to employ even its own "required" practices, but that's more of an aside…

> don't have a form with just a login email and force the user to click to enter the password This is required for any non trivial auth system though. You not know until the user is submitted if that user has a password or is using something else.
This is true but some sites handle it well. My browser auto-fills the email and password properly even though they are on separate "steps". Other sites the email field doesn't auto-complete in any way (but the password later usually does). I don't know what the magic is here. If I had to guess they have both fields in the DOM but one is visually hidden. Then if your email is marked as SSO it is just never read.

The 2000s, the golden age of web design, when people built inaccessible IE6-only mystery-meat navigation websites with Flash and HTML tables that dynamically loaded JS using iframes.
I was also a time of web standards movement, birth of the Phoenix/Firefox, time of CSS ZenGarden. Beautiful time.

The cause is businesses are putting emphasis on showing their brand on the site. Every dropdown has to look and feel like their product. In short almost everyone wants their website to be a video game.
But CSS can easily restyle every baseline HTML element. Making the web page look like the product is not only entirely possible without having to layer a framework on top, it's likely often easier and faster to implement than layering a framework on top.
