The size. For a Node app, maybe not so bad (though I'd use node-fetch or got[1] which are smaller). For a browser app, loading all of superagent (which is almost 2 megabytes) just to make a few GET and POST calls is silly.

Never used axios but I've heard good things about it and its creator is awesome. I just use fetch because it does what I want.
