Nah, we don't deserve it. We just don't have a choice at this point until someone is capable of creating an alternative to JavaScript.

Didn't you mean "an alternative to Google?"

Don't blame the tool for the (lack of) craftsmanship.

It has nothing to do with Google and everything to do with JavaScript.
The issue isn’t JS. Sites are bloated because cheap/lazy/dont care. Also because ads are bloating and payload size isnmt really thought about much.
The issue is JavaScript unless you're talking about people that use BMP image format instead of JPG/SVG.
You are asking for an alternative for browsers and 30 years of evolution. Be careful what you wish for :)
