I agree with your POV regarding the Quesa stuff.  I don't use any of it.

I feel RB's grown to quite a bloated application compared to version  
3.0 when I began my work with this product.  Largely due to the  
software essentially being a complete demo for 30 days.  That's a lot  
of baggage to carry around.  Not just the Pro stuff while running  
only at Standard, but the huge frameworks for the platforms.

I believe a more modular RB could do a lot to reduce the footprint.   
It's already suggested by RS to buy a Windows version and run it on a  
Windows OS if you want cross platform and don't need to go Pro.  It  
saves a couple of hundred.

Having RB carry around all the platforms' frameworks to show that  
cross-platform builds are achievable has been a major selling point,  
so a modular RB may never happen.  On the other hand, when it costs  
less to buy a separate Windows license just to have Standard level  
cross-platform capability then to pay the Pro price, perhaps RS  
should take a second look at selling RB "by the framework", where hey  
plugin or install into a Standard or Pro IDE.

Yours truly
