They actually likely did this due to SEO. Google was allegedly in the process of removing tweets from the search index because they weren’t accessible. This happens automatically for most sites.

This feels like an extremely basic thing to miss. Something 10 seconds of thought would have fixed.

Okay but that would involve whoever is in charge there to think longer than 10 seconds.
