emacs is extensible, which means its capabilities can be for
the most part dynamically (w/o recompiling) augmented at your
command, by "loading emacs lisp libraries". when you see
120MB you see a lot of libraries ("integrated" over time :-)
that are available but not loaded.

one is indeed able to choose (but to know what the choices
are and then to choose wisely -- that's more difficult :-).
w/ emacs, "to have" does not negate "to be able to choose".
if you yourself are open to change, you might take joy in
deepening your concept of "to have", to better understand
what everyone is trying to tell you. or not. the choice is
yours to exercise, after all.
