On the other hand: doesn't individual development suffers from at least two 
problems?

(1) lack of a common vision leading to potentially widely divergent and 
incompatible solutions
(2) lack of sufficient energy (manpower etc.) behind any given project 
development to make any real headway.

Presumably there's a happy medium between supreme bloat and minimalism?

You (and I, even) may disagree, but history suggests that communal
development as it is known now leads to irreversible bloat.  So if you
have a brilliant idea (not some grandiose concepts with little meat)
you have to be able to deliver on it before anybody here will adopt
it.  Putting it another way, no one believes you when you claim that
there is another path out there that will lead to Eldorado.  Bring
back some gold nuggets and you'll see an immediate attitude change.
