That sounds reasonable but I must disagree. For one thing, the wiggling

We know very well where the bloat comes from (ModuleInfos, class
references, eager template analysis) and unless someone tackles those
bigger issues, the small stuff really doesn't matter that much.
In the meantime we're reverting useful code b/c hello world must not

My hypothesis goes, once we put the ratchet in motion, motivation will grow to tackle these issues. Without it things will wiggle forever, and more one way than the other. -- Andrei
