I love that the author calls 31MB for an app (the Godot Editor) 'tiny'.

I guess that's an effect of Electron & co.

The 3D apps we used in the 90s had GUIs of similar complexity, all drawn in app (not using OS widgets).

They were considered 'large' when they approached 5MB.

Well yeah, in a post Electron world any application smaller than 60Mb may as well be magic.
