With mobile devices becoming faster, internet speed not being a bottleneck anymore. Do web vital scores hold the same importance as earlier days?
Humans have different wants and needs than what Google can measure.
A great example of this: in order to ship entire megabytes of JavaScript to the browser, rather than just, you know, NOT do that, we instead trick the browser into thinking we got our "time to first byte" or "first contentful paint" immediately by putting up some flashing gradient of non-content, while the megabytes of JavaScript figure out what to actually paint. So while the user is waiting actual multiple seconds for each page load to be useful, Web Vitals is handing out 100's left and right because it can only see what is important to the computer, not the user.
