I assure you that 20 years ago websites with chats existed and they worked fine. Which means they weren't so huge because it would have taken days to download that amount of stuff.

Just like 40 years ago we where able to store a POSIX compatible OS on a floppy drive.

The things developers usually forget is that there are other stakeholders than the computer executing code - IMHO a lot of developers would benefit from developing a bit of business acumen.

I doubt customers specifically ask to make the product really large and slow.

No - the customer is not asking to spend additional developer time in minimizing bundles.

This is exactly the type of business acumen that is missing.
