The success of an organization is very rarely dependent solely on website performance. Speed is just one dimension in a vast and multi-dimensional optimization space. Spending time improving performance means you are necessarily not spending time improving one of those other vectors. It is a question of priorities - and suggesting that others who say that other priorities are more important are "emotional" is failing to grapple with that reality.
I don't doubt you have been correct to say performance can be improved. Performance always can be improved. It just likely doesn't matter.
- austin-cheney 8mo agoYes. Everything else matters too, but that is still not an excuse to throw away evidence. If you don’t want to be faster it’s okay.
- johnfn 8mo agoI am not throwing away evidence. I am saying "You are correct that removing React would make most websites faster. It would also be a strategy that few places should pursue."
