Well we could standardize a file format for making desktop applications using HTML, CSS, and JS so that you'd just run the file with the browser of your choice, but then at that point you're making an open source jar file (which could be a good idea if done right)

those programs are big because they're packaging the whole headless browser with them which is unnecessary.
