What a good point! The web would be much nicer looking if browsers accepted pages written in LaTeX as well as pages written in HTML.

After all TeX is all about high quality printing on paper.

Browsers already accept PDF. TeX files aren't portable.

A TeX distribution on my computer (mactex) is like 4 gigabytes. Definitely not "bundle-with-a-web-browser" worthy.
