Funny post at wptavern. Somebody should check just this post - 116 HTTP requests! Yes, 116 one blog post :) Almost half of 1,4MB page is javascript :)

This website looks like a satire to optimization. Even somebody cool will optimize this website and remove 50% code, it is still bloated mess.

I think this is state of the web and state of the WordPress in 2019.
