The latter point is important: if esbuild wants to introduce more customisability it’ll need to use more JS, and be slower.

There's likely no need for the majority of the customisation in webpack, but removing it isn't an option either. The real issue is that webpack has gotten to the position it has now and nobody has stopped and asked "why"!
