The idea that browsing the modern web transfers "tens of kilobytes of data" is pessimistic. I think you can argue bandwidth constraints in the real-world are real. Improving the underlying stack is one thing and would obviously bring improvements, but browsing speed won't be one of them. If you make responses faster, they'll be able to stuff more garbage in those responses.
