Well that's ridiculous because now you go down the rabbit hole of
saying someone's use case is stupid and therefore that code shouldn't
be in the application so that you personally don't have to download
and install it.
Where did I say this? All I said is, "libreoffice has grown
fat".
Actually, I think, this applies to most of today's SW, with Linux and
Linux-SW being no exception.
IMO, esp. feature-bloat, GUI-eyecandy and the average developer not
caring much about resources have caused them to grow fat.
