Want more heresy?

If the core contained more modules, there'd be even less possibility of 
getting managed hosts or hostile system administrators in really picky 
environments to install or update modules -- even dual-lived ones.

If the core contained only the minimum necessary modules to update and install 
modules, would these reluctant groups finally come up with a way to update 
and install useful software released within the past couple of years?

If not, or if not entirely, would that be enough competitive pressure to make 
something like PAR or bundles actually usable as a general solution even for 
people with only FTP access to their managed servers?
