Dear Sam,
Thanks for your detailed feedback. Of course the spellign mitsakes will be fixed as soon as possible...
Regarding your comments on JavaScript: the site makes very extensive use of JS to reduce size and improve performance. In particular, all content and images are loaded dynamically using JSON and AJAX – that's why you don't see anything if JavaScript is disabled in your browser.
Luckily, less than 1% of users have JavaScript disabled, and we have decided to ignore them in order to create a better and more interactive experience for everyone else.
Best regards,
Philipp
