Preact, Mithril, Zod, etc. There are plenty of projects that have remained relatively light by saying “no” repeatedly to things which are outside their scope or would introduce unwarranted bloat.

Did they really ??

Looking at latest version of Preact v 10.5.14.zip (887kb) vs Preact v8.5.0.zip(90kb). So that is almost a x10 size increase in two years.

You're doing something wrong. I just tested now. Preact 8.5.0 is 3.2kb minified+brotlied. Preact 10.8.2 (latest) is 3.7kb. That's a very small increase.

I think you right. I just downloaded the "tagged software version" from github.
