I appreciate the contribution of your opinion. A nice website I found addressing the impact of jQuery's size was this one:

https://modernweb.com/is-jquery-too-big-for-mobile/.

That website backs up my assertions regarding the benefit of avoiding jQuery. I know my target audience and situation. My clients will be mostly on older Android phones in an otherwise 1 Mbps-dominated third-world country, and they will be accessing this application through a server on the other side of the world, almost maximizing the latency of the connection. Given the particular circumstances I'm dealing with, it's worth the effort for me to make AJAX work. Plus, I get to learn how to implement AJAX.

Blessings,
