You are correct, but beg the question: why are so many popular websites so slow even if they are essentially static content?

If putting a brand on a set of techniques plus offering CDN space and serp priority gets publishers to actually build fast websites, then I am all in favor of it.

One reason (but not the whole reason) is that trackers are always essentially dynamic content.
