All valid points. But if it was such a big concern, then why was Apple 
happy to go with it. Maybe the concern is not so bad. As for bigger apps 
(due to bundled dependencies).... That might have been a concern years 
back, but nobody seems to care now about large apps. Hell, even websites 
are now 5+MB per page downloads (massive JavaScript libraries, huge 
high-res images etc). View a few pages and you have downloaded some 50MB 
easily.
