Another fact about to consider IMHO: Libraries can be fat in pure Elm 
thanks to the efficient dead-code elimination in 0.17 -- if a function is 
not referenced in your code, or the code you call, it will not be exported 
-- while the native parts of them is only left to something like closure or 
uglify. So, it is better to have pure elm libraries, and their raw size is 
only relevant if you use all the features.
