I don’t think I can agree with that, and I’m a pretty agreeable chap.
In the days when people actually cared about the html layout and readability, FP spammed everything hugely, and inserted a lot of terrible cruft. Inventing zillions of new <style> tags for everything, even when the user just wanted to italicise a word. Use a <i> tag? No! We’ll invent a whole new style class and embed it in the headers.
A few years ago I rather stupidly agreed to take over hosting of a website for someone that was dying. It had been written with FP and it took me months to de-cruft it using a lot of regexp and scrifting. (Some 8,000 images and around 2000 .html files).
