YOU don't use those 200 units, but the UNIT YOU USE needs them. Get the
point?
Even though you don't, what about other people? FPC is not released just for
you, dude. Stop being selfish...

Simple, just grab the installer (win or mac), or take from repository (lin),
or compile from source (all).
You don't seem to understand the basic concept how modular programming
(unit) works, and FPC packages is highly modular. We won't include
everything in a single unit, that's SILLY.

Not really, code size increase can come from anything. Feature support,
unstripped binaries, change in debug info format, etc. but so what? How big
is that anyway? Twice? You must be kidding, if you do everything properly,
the size increase won't even touch 20%. I have an application that I've
developed since 2008 (https://code.google.com/p/express-gui) and you can see
the "increase" in size of the binaries from time to time (search All
Downloads to see everything since 2008). Increase? Yeah if you count
backwards...

> This is all simple?  Not in my dictionary's definition! Dooooooh 

Then expand it, your dictionary is too localized and narrow
