Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Block Weight Inspector version 0.1.0 as active, updated 9mo ago and tested up to WordPress 6.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Block Weight Inspector adds a sidebar panel in the block editor that maps blocks in the current post/page to the CSS and JS assets they register. It estimates local asset sizes, highlights top offenders, and exports a JSON report. It can also generate a suggested conditional-loading snippet to help you dequeue assets when a block is not present.
It also adds a Tools -> Block Weight Inspector screen for auditing existing posts without opening the editor.
Note: The inspector preserves block comment delimiters when analyzing content so parse_blocks() remains accurate after sanitization.
Key features:
Block -> asset mapping using registered block metadata.
Estimated size for local assets.
Top offenders summary and full asset list.
JSON export for sharing or auditing.
Suggested conditional-loading rules (review before use).
