I don’t agree. Why should we reduce the size of the default image? It should 
show a lot of things you can do with pharo. As everything is loaded from 
bootstrap we can have now every size of the image we want. I would rather see 
an official minimal image that people will download for building their 
software. But the development should contain everything that eases development 
and shows what pharo can do.
The critical border to me is what we provide in documentation. On the one hand 
we could benefit from powerful code documentation. But this could conflict with 
the minimum image we provide where people work on and these tools would be 
missing.
