Web site bloat is largely due to web applications being optimised for product managers. Tracking, ad partners, etc...aren’t there for the developers benefit any more than they’re there for the end user.

Sure, there is bloat in a great many web frame works and I too question why some blogs need JS enabled just to render static text. But if we are being honest, by far the worst offenders for web bloat is the trackers and ad partners.
