sure, "web", but I'm very grateful to just visit a URL and get stuff done without installing anything

That doesn't technically require "web" as we know it. The system could just as well had been that you go to a URL and it downloads a compiled program och runs it. Now with WASM they are attempting to "fix" it in post. Could have been done better if done properly from the start.

I can't speak for GDocs but I did work in a couple places with such editors and the problem was that it was the bare minimum to make the feature work and move to something else which meant: - Huge and bloated exchange format - Sync entire docs - Slow clients - Complicated models

Ah but remember, if the model is to run offline and sync, then synchronising is the bottleneck! So who cares if the client is slow.
