It's a way for them to "justify" things; "Your page doesn't rank as high in search results as Wikipedia because.. uh... your page loads too slowly."

Part of the issue is their priorities. Could it be that the internet is still slow in India? So they need "graphics acceleration" because "web pages load
too slowly?" I doubt it, but it does make me wonder if their developers live in their moms' basements, and mom can't afford broadband so their using dial-up. lol
RL> So now I think that they are incompetent AND evil.
