This can be done if we drop the ballast, not any other way.


No. Abandoning the Sage distribution would be done in 1 shot.
Doing it 1 package at a time makes no sense.
As I explained (cut away in quote), ""The big problem is that the middle 
ground between "Complete Sage distribution that works in most use cases" 
and "No Sage distribution" is worse than both of the extremes. By removing 
spkgs one by one, we would make the Sage distribution less useful. So this 
is not a meaningful process."""
