Having spent lots of time trying to optimize servers to correctly utilize HTTP/2+push, and building bundle-less deployments, not only is it quite difficult, it doesn't achieve the compression performance that bundling does. We measured ~30% better compression from a bundle over separate files.
And I don't see this as bloating standards at all, but fixing a huge problem in current web development and paving a cow path. Bundlers are central to web development today, maybe even more so than frameworks. And they cripple the features of many of the files types they bundle. WebBundles fixes that.
