> In order for a PWA to be normal and usable, it must be available offline, open in a window without browser chrome, have similar performance to a native application, be launchable via a shortcut on the host OS, and respond to the mouse and keybaord shortcuts the way you'd expect. I think I've just described... an Electron app?
You've just described a PWA. You can install them as a host OS shortcut, they run without browser chrome, should have performance equal to Electron.
Also if you really want extra bloat and faff, any PWA is trivial to turn into an Electron app.
Most of PWA criticism is based on misunderstanding PWA capabilities.
