If lugia officially bulkier than snorlax?

I know lugia has better dps than snorlax due to it's very powerful sky attack, but when the rebalance happened, it was meant to buff all the pokemon with low to average bulk, while nerfs the pokemon with insanely high bulk (ie snorlax, blissey) but lugia, with as much bulk as snorlax, got buffed, so that literally means that other than putting snorlax in a gym, theres no more use for him, right?

Was there ever a use for Snorlax outside of gyms?

Lick/Earthquake Snorlax was a great anchor for Gengar raids, back before they were trivial.

Lugia has significantly more weaknesses compared to Snorlax's one, but overall, I've found it to be a tanky beast in PvP in the master league. It really hates Tyranitar and Mewtwo, but aside from them, it tends to perform very well. It tanks hits like a boss, can spam sky attack pretty frequently, and has access to hydro pump to deal with pesky Golems, Rhyperiors, and Tyranitars that like to throw rocks at it.

As for Snorlax, I'll still throw one in a gym now and then, but I don't think I've ever used one outside of gym defense.
