This is why I find it dreadful that evangelists here are heavily promoting live$whatever technology where every local state change requires at least one server roundtrip, or “browsers support esm now, bundling is a thing of the past!” etc. You don’t need to be at Antarctica to feel the latencies caused by the waterfall of roundtrips, or roundtrip on every click, as long as you’re a mere 200ms from the server, or in a heavily congested place.
