    I see you’ve never dealt with a real life project that requires god knows how many different libraries off nodejs because 🤷‍♂️

    Dependency hell takes a lot of space.

      I have. Still small compared to the images and such that are used in a user facing application.

      Edit: just to bring in real numbers, I have an old TypeScript project that results in a 109M node_modules dir. Which I agree is absurd. I also have an old anime video, 21 minutes long, at only 560x432 resolution, 24fps, which takes 171M. And that’s my point: even in really bad cases, code size tends to be swamped out by everything else in user-facing applications. If there’s any kind of images, music, or video, the code size will be a small part of the complete picture.
