One challenge a bundler and transpiler introduce is they enable an unconstrained set of solutions.

If a particular application has 10 patterns that support all the applications UI interactions, then a simple, constrained solution like htmx that supports those 10 patterns is preferable (to me) than an unconstrained solution like Typescript + React where each developer will likely use their creativity and experience to design slightly or wildly bespoke solutions for each feature.
