Have you looked at the average size of, say, a .NET bundled binary.

Not sure why the down vote(s)... My main work project isn't that big yet, and the bin directory is like 96mb.

Not that I find it particularly egregious, but my rust (web-server) apps not even optimized are under 10mb easily.

The difference is dotnet is both a much more feature complete runtime and a much more performant one. Its not like you're getting all too much with that node runtime - it was, and still is although to a lesser extent, pretty bare-bones.
