If there was a textbox here allowing searching for a particular name, then hiding >90% of the page by default would make more sense, but otherwise why prevent people from using that built-in browser feature?
In more detail: (1) It doesn't cut down on page load times, and in fact *adds* to rendering complexity, especially when confusing a search feature that says it finds something but yet refuses to display it? (2) People aren't likely to have the tiers memorized, so unlike if it was organized by alphabetical first letter, this adds 1-10 (on average perhaps 5) extra steps to find what someone may be looking for but I'm not sure what value it offers in return? (3) It's not difficult at all to scroll down a page...on either desktop or mobile, so why make people jump through extra hoops to get at the content?
Perhaps at least offer an option to display all the entries at once if people want that?
