Now the CSS and JS is clean, why not deliver minified JS? Also why not deliver CSS inline with HTML to save the HTTP request?

I agree with serving minified & combined CSS and JavaScript resources, while I disagree with serving inline CSS:

Imo the repository should only contain unminified resources, minifying them sould be done eighter on the fly or as part of the deployment process
As long as the CSS is tiny (say < 1 KiB), including it in the HTML is feasible. After that serving an external cachable entity should perform better
