It would be for libraries like react or vue that are already small. Angular is still big enough that even after being 40kb slimmer it's still fairly huge (I think the typical build is like ~550+kb).

It's just the first step. With both differential loading and Ivy, build sizes for a minimal app can drop close to 14kb, iirc. That's the goal, anyway.

Use any UI lib or anything of substance really and your app is going north of 500kb really fast.
