Dumb question but I thought tauri was the lightweight alternative to electron. Did I remember that incorrectly?

Lightweight often just translates to less features. Unless you're rewriting a truly bad piece of software, you're "lightweight" alternative will be just as heavyweight when you're done reimplementing everything
