It's a frontend. So literally a skin to make a website look prettier and more organized.

Imagine a waiter starts telling customers what foods they are allowed to eat. He wasn't the chef, the manager, the owner, anybody.

That's how stupid it was.

    More like the waiter starts crossing out everything on the menu that’s not to their taste and telling the diners the kitchen ran out.

    It was an overstep of authority AND total dishonesty.
