This makes sence but introduces a problem, at least in the implementation I see. A JS-free user would be served a static html file, which is presumably created at export-time. Since the alternatives are somewhat transient and the html files are created somewhat infrequently, this approach will resolve broken links more often. I guess the true problem of this depends on the availability of JS-free alternatives and thus I don't really know how big of a deal this is. It would also be alleviated if GNU would host instances of alternatives (like https://projectsegfau.lt/ does, I don't know how reliable they are), but this of course requires effort on their side. It's also easier to resolve an authoratative source to an alternative than the other way round, but this is not too big of an issue.
