How many mainstream online platform users care about the difference in KB in their experience, anyway?
The sites in the list are hobbyist clubs with a technical point of view, which wouldn’t make sense for a mass media outlet with millions of daily traffic, and real interdepartmental complexity and compliance issues to deal with.

Yeah, that sounds awesome.
Nobody _needs_ to run a 4-minute mile, or win a chess tournament, or climb a mountain, or make the most efficient computer program. They're still worthwhile human endeavors.

That's when you fit the core of your website into 14KB so it can be sent in a single round trip.
512KB is a lot. You can fit a reasonable "car" into it.
