ZOMG; srsly? The web is *drowning in script*, making content inaccessible for hundreds of millions...and you're arguing about labels!?!!!!!

If talking about JS frameworks, depending on the app, SSR rehydration may take longer than rendering content (not the app shell) client side.

And that's related to other comments in the thread: we need to really integrate this way of thinking into the frameworks themselves, so that they can be functional with minimal client-side code.

So perhaps nudging people to optimizing for the web bloat metric may have unintended consequences?
-
Yes, the problem with the web bloat metric is that it only considers the rendering, not the interaction/functionality. As usual, no one metric is ever going to encapsulate the full picture in a valid way. Best to have multiple metrics so you can acknowledge the trade-offs.

I prefer Time To First Meaningful Paint (the content you care about is painted) followed by no jank or layout thrashing once the remaining assets are fetched. TTI is often, but not always, a close approximation.
