That would be unreliable, not bloated. Bloated could mean a number of things, roughly: Does too many things, links to too many libraries, takes up too much memory, disk space or possibly CPU time for what it does. Pretty much always a value judgement at some level. Clearly all interrelated, but nothing (directly) to do with unreliable. Doing a lot without good enough QC could lead to unreliability, but it doesn't have to. And code can be unreliable while being very tight and compact - though it should decrease the likelihood.
