Why browsers are bloated

Let's reinvent the fucking scrollbar, which every goddamn platform with a UI already has, and make it behave subtly different from the native one!

Right-click a native scrollbar in some other app:
- Scroll Here
- Top
- Bottom
- Page Up
- Page Down
- Scroll Up
- Scroll Down

Right-click a scrollbar in Chrome:
- Back
- Forward
- Reload
- Save As...
...

Right-click a scrollbar in Firefox and Opera:
Absolutely fucking nothing happens!

What the fuck!? How did these terminally retarded idiots get involved in creating one of the most important pieces of software to the average user?

Define a container that can hold several types of elements.

Like struct (and maybe with a enum "tag" and a union if you want to save space) or a void *.

Define a fold function that works on several types of containers.

Surely there are more examples.

Can C do that without C "macros"?

Yes as you can see.
