Imagine a world that pre-dates typescript, node, webpack, browserify, gulp, grunt. You were lucky if you had a server framework that concatenated files for you, otherwise you were stuck with 6000+ line "global.js" files. Then you had to fix merge conflicts in that file because SVN.
Whenever someone complains that frontend JS is too much, I just think back to how it used to be.
