This is the unfortunate thinking of today. Just multiply that with 20 programs 
and you'll see where it gets you in terms of # uselessly wasted RAM.
Similar with Android these days: every meaningless "App" eats its 60 MB of 
memory whether it's doing anything or not, totalling to 100% memory usage
and laggy phone. Just because "memory is cheap" and other lazy programmer 
thinking.

The days of chasing every kilobyte are gone, but just doubling the program 
between minor versions sound strange to me too.

BTW., this is a plaintext list, if nothing else then by custom. Would you mind 
replying to plaintext mails in in plaintext? Yeah, another "old times"
legacy. But it also eases quoting - or much more doesn't kill it for TheBat! 
like HTML mails do.
