Gov.uk drops jQuery from their front end
Stuck out to me too, but the article is wrong, they didn't "reduce blocking time" by 11%, they reduced how long it takes to complete "JS Long Tasks" by 11% (63ms).
They
do
claim a "reduction in JS size" on all JS apps "between 31% and 49%."

Ahh, nice. Thanks. Believe it or not, "long tasks" is a meaningful term:

. They're what Time to Interactive measures.
