There's a modest amount of low-hanging fruit if people really cared about image size. For example, here's a way to shrink the (uncompressed) live filesystem by 30M: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812975#c4 I do find the concern for difficult install scenarios to be noble, but I would tend to class that as a different problem from producing a useful live image that also happens to be installable. But clearly the objection here is about "doing more work" more than "changing the image size". - ajax
