1. Being too large for constrained bandwidth networks hardly makes it a non starter for anything performance sensitive unless you have a very narrow definition of performance.

2. 2MB includes bootstrap CSS and they are working on getting that number down.

3. 2MB is only the Wasm version of Blazor. You don’t have to use that version if it doesn’t fit your use case.

I don't have to use it but Wasm Blazor is the version everyone is shouting about. Well, everybody at the Microsoft hype machine that is.

Go to the Blazor homepage. Right there on the front page--the 2nd bullet point is "Run on WebAssembly or the server".

Most people I've talked to using Blazor are in fact using Blazor server not Blazor WASM.
