Why do websites still display 404 pages instead of just another error page? [duplicate]
This question already has an answer here:
I was asked to design a 404 page but do we actually need to say 404? Even though most people understand what 404 means, do we need to explicitly tell users its a 404?
Why cant it just be an error page?
examples like these are really cool error pages. But they can get away without having the 404 in there. The context made it clear already. Why do websites still have it? When is it ok to break this rule?
