One serious nitpick with you though. "Heavy web pages are heavy because they are multi-megabytes to download...) In my experience, heavy web pages are heavy because of the dozens of scripts being run on the pages, often based on bloated frameworks. Running uBlock and NoScript in advanced, I see it all, and I immediately think less of any site trying to load more than 3 scripts. Often I come across sites trying to run 20+. That's why the web is heavy today, not because the sites are huge to download.
