At this point in my life I think "DX" - if you mean things like performance, reliability, simplicity and maintainability - is inversely proportional to the amount of (transitive) dependencies, layers of abstraction and (only half jokingly) also the percentage of JS that something includes. I've encountered a pretty back breaking memory leak in vite that has been unresolved for about 2y now. The project I work on that uses vite doesn't need the flexibility, feature set and plugin system that vite offers. It just needs a fast bundler.
