Aha! That's helpful; thank you for your patience in exploring these thoughts...

The basic problem there is that you are ignoring the definition of "plugin" 
that TiddlyWiki uses, and instead basing your reasoning on a different 
definition. As I say, in TiddlyWiki, a plugin is a bundle of tiddlers. That's 
all.

Anyhow, the core is not optional in the sense that TiddlyWiki can operate 
without it, but it *is* optional in another critical sense: anybody can make an 
alternative core plugin.

Best wishes

Jeremy
