Or more likely because you now have a hard dependacy on a boat load of code you never needed, that upgrade comes with breaking changes doing more harm and wasting more time than if you had just done it properly from the start.

Its your slow underperforming website, not mine.

Why use a sdk if you can write assembler code rigth?

Ya, you clearly do not understand cost value analysis, while I at no point said jQuery does not add value, in the vast majority of implications the cost far exceeds the value.

I write high performance we applications, up until the day I come across an application that will make 100% utilisation of every feature jQuery has, then all its doing is slowing down my application with code I DO NOT NEED AND CANNOT EXCLUDE.

Every application I wrote only ever has the code it needs, nothing more. Performance is king, no wasted wasted space, no unnecessary bloat.

I do understand actually, but since I am not programing a kernel module using jquery, I am ok with it.

You clearly haven't used a profiler to compare how a 40kb code that is not executed improves your performance. You just throwing big words or your websites has to run on fridges and TVs.
