Why is ESP getting so big? Isn’t it for the kernel and ramdisk, maybe a few old versions too? Are ramdisks now reaching in the hundreds of megabytes?

Maybe 1GB is a bit overkill, but I can say from personal experience that, of all the partitions to find out you need to resize, this one is the most painful.
