Let’s leave aside, for now, the fact that you’ve changed web standards. You’ve been a participant in the first time—in the history of the web, far as I know—that the web development community has taken a feature from an initial proposal to the funding of an honest-to-God native implementation.

Instead, I want you to focus on this: say only ten developers use a native responsive images solution to reduce the weight of just one page apeice by only 500kb, and each of those pages has a barely-significant 5,000 hits per month: those users have been saved almost 24GB of data. A thousand pages saving 500kb apeice, and we’ve saved users an entire terabyte in a month. Now expand that to the entire industry: every web developer; every hit on every page that would otherwise carry with it a huge, wasteful image request, saving megabytes at a time. To those users, the only change is that the web is faster, less expensive, more accessible. For those users, the web is just better.

In helping make the picture element
