Well, I will play the devil's advocate and ask why MS Office ships
in 2 versions: with and w/o Access?

Because MsOffice is not OpenOffice.org
It is a lot easier to give the user everything, than to give them a
long list of all the options. Give users even 2 options, can confuse
them. Remember they are no where near as technologically advanced than
anyone who will be on this list.
I strongly advocate this as the ultimate solution. Power users
that depend on Base will download the full version of OOo
[...]
It will take much words to explain users when they need base and
when not. (pls read my first post on this subject). This will lead
to tremendous confusion and an enormous load of questions on the
mailing list :-(

Why do you think that Apple introduced the idea of a universal binary?
To make it simple for users. When users have to try and work out
whether they have an Intel or a PowerPC processor, they generally
struggle.
