That is what happens when users have to rely on such self-help HOWTOs to work around distribution deficiencies. Those HOWTOs invariably tend to grow out of date. By the way, what that link does not mention when it talks about "multiple packages for the same thing" is browsers / web engines. The Spin ships several applications using QtWebEngine, e.g., KMail, so that engine is not going away. But in addition to one or two browsers using that, which add little to no overhead size-wise, it still ships the duplicate application Firefox that bundles its own, completely different web engine. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1920298 . (The main argument has always been market share, which at 2% market share and steadily decreasing does not sound relevant anymore.)
