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?

Ooh, look at my japanime reference at how smart I think I am!

You don't even understand the concept of "waste". No money is being wasted, and no human time is being wasted, so this is absolutely nothing like the Toyota example.

Any system that's built as "waste-free" as possible will always be the most brittle way to build it. Would you like a hydroelectric dam built next to your house not to waste concrete, and be exactly the thickness which can withstand observed pressures? Any more would be wasteful, right?

It's the same thing with software. You make it not have "waste", and it falls on its face when you try to push it harder. While the rest of the word considers anti-fragility, you explicitly pursue anti-robustness, because robustness happens to use free computational resources.
