Now that is a real step back in my opinion. Please, read Tab's full email. No need to willfully mislead people just to create a flame war like this. You know as well as we do as that the backwards compat story is: <img src=foo.jpg srcset="foo.jpg 2x"> Extra <noscript> is only for a *Javascript* polyfill that will give you the behavior in current browsers. That means, only those who absolutely want switching to work with browsers not having implemented it, should use something like this. In fact, polyfilling other solutions will require the exact same, because you'd have to cater for people having Javascript turned off. However, you can also polyfill the simple version, but you would get two requests in some browsers if you do that. So you can optimize what you want.
