Hullo, Hitesh/chimak111 ! And thanks for posting your code for replacing those bloatted .svg files ! The point is, precisely as you write above, that we «still don't know what part those files play and why they're there» - or for that mattter, why they are so large. Hope some knowledgeable user or developer can contribute to our enlightenment !...
