More likely incompetence than malice, designing for mobile in terms of screensize and UI but neglecting to consider network bandwidth and memory+CPU resource. That and no doubt a fair chunk of that payload relates to advertising in some way.
If it _is_ by design then I suspect it is intended as a way to funnel people into installing their app, much like reddit's user-hostile mobile design (I should thank them, they've saved some time in my day by song me bothering with that site on mobile).
