In my experience page weight isn't usually the biggest issue. On unreliable connections you'll often get decent bandwidth when you can get through. It's applications that expect to be able to multiple HTTP requests sequentially and don't deal well with some succeeding and failing (or just network failures in general) that are the most problematic. If I can retry a failed a network request that's fine. If I have to restart the entire flow when I get a failure that's unusable.
