I don't really understand how breaking something as useful as
the stdlib into smaller pieces would help with anything.

The main purpose of a library is that you have an *integrated* set
of modules that are known and tested to work together.

No one has suggested that - just that the core can be downloaded without the stdlib, for the people that might need it.


The stdlib has gone a long way in trying to achieve that and it's
getting better at it with every release.
