It's hard to take this seriously. Saying React is bloated because `create-react-app` pulls too many dependencies makes it seem like you don't understand what `create-react-app` is for. `create-react-app` is not a hello world, it's application scaffolding. Imagine if I said Ruby's hello world was 1 million lines because I had started with Rails. That is what is happening here.
Show me what longwood looks like when you have a large complex application with several re-usable components, then compare it to react. It's very easy to create "clean" minimal libraries that do nothing more than hello world. The complexity comes from building actual applications.
