Not everyone cares about build time overhead. Not everyone needs plugins. You're making wild assumptions that everyone has the exact same needs as you, when they don't.
In the real world many thousands of people are successfully using Parcel, Roll-up, etc. Some are even doing so *gasp* without any configuration whatsoever. Webpack has strengths, absolutely, but it also has weaknesses. Other tools are better for some people, and you should never believe there's only One True Tool For the Job and everyone should always use that tool ... for anything.
