What incentive would most businesses have to do what you're describing?
It is _much_ faster, cheaper, and easier to build a bloated website than an optimized one. Similarly, it is much easier to enable HTTP2 than it is to fix the root of the problem.
I'm not saying that it's right -- anyone without a fast connection or who cares about their privacy isn't getting a great deal here.

So if we lived in a world with fewer monopolies then protocols might have evolved more incrementally. Though we'd presumably still have gotten something like BBR because congestion algorithms can be implemented unilaterally.
