 Dictionaries aren't implemented by `load-scripts.php`, right? Also, I
 don't see that there is even any compression at all (e.g. GZip). Maybe I'm
 not seeing something.

 Yes, that's what I'm referring to.

 WordPress doesn't do anything, I'm thinking of the compression modules
 used by web servers & CDNs.

 On the two sites I can readily use live servers to run experiments with,
 adding `define( 'CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', true );` increased the transfer
 size of the CSS while the JS dropped a little.
