Does HTTP/2 make bundling unnecessary?
Short interview answer
It makes aggressive bundling of many tiny files less necessary and often harmful, since per-request overhead is much lower and smaller files cache and invalidate more granularly. Some bundling still helps — reducing compression overhead and module-resolution cost — so the answer is 'bundle less', not 'don't bundle'.
Key takeaway
Explain the underlying mental model clearly, then support it with a concrete example and its trade-offs.
