This is a very narrow perspective. Bundling may not necessarily serve the use cases that it currently serves once HTTP2 is deployed. However, we should consider why real game engines use sprites, why Java uses JAR files, and why native applications are constantly reconsidering tradeoffs around single vs multiple dynamically-loaded shared libraries -- all on local file systems. I/O isn't free, multiple I/O requests are not free, and there will always be tradeoffs in this space.
