You know what a compiled web app looks like? Here:
Content-Encoding: gzip
And presto! It works! It is human readable, and yet the representation the machine sees is compact!
You know what makes webapps slow? It's badly-written Javascript. It's bad router and proxy connections. It's creating forty-odd connections to thirty-odd 3rd party CDN and analytics and ad platforms. It's gigantic images that aren't sized correctly. It's badly-written CSS that misuses transforms and graphics commands.
It's not JS implementations being slow. It's not HTML documents being hard to parse. It's not a shortcoming in HTTP.
Your comment suggests a lack of familiarity with the problem domain.
