Tangent: I find tremendous irony in the video used as an example. It is for the remake of a game that is about problem solving and story telling, yet the remake requires vastly more resources than the original. Yes, there are reasons for the increased resource usage. On the other hand, there are reasons to use the more resource intensive version of the YouTube embed.
I suppose the moral of the story is that software will grow to consume the resources available to it. Often, if not most of the time, there will be benefits to that increased resource usage. Yet that won't prevent people who prioritize factors like efficient resource usage from seeking alternatives they view as better.
