It's a pity that you can write English better than you can read it.
If you consider your remark intelligently, you will see that it
expresses a valid thought in an inaccurate manner. Granted that those
without script enabled will not be able to navigate by the script-
energised control; but that does not mean that they will not be able to
navigate if other means are provided.

That may have been your intention; it was not what you achieved. You
were, as is your custom, over-dogmatic.
You expect others to pay attention to what you write; you really should
do the same yourself before you expose it to the public gaze.
Your attributions still do not comply with recent thinking by Usenet
experts; it is inappropriate to apply ancient German-newsgroup rulings
here.
Your articles lack a validly-separated signature.
