The jist is that Cooker on my system is just an upgrade in place of
individual packages rather than a fresh install thus no "basesystem"
package -- there was not one there before I "Cooker"ed it. I just
didn't want to risk an installer f*cking up my working Linux machine.

Well I just think unecessary bloat is a bad thing. It's makes something
more complicated and harder to understand when you include parts that
are really not needed and not used (this is a general statement that is
valid outside of the Linux context even). That is my argument against
this kind of unessary bloat. What argument could there be for it? It
seems to me that Alex had/has a pretty good solution. Why not use it?
