Generally, embedded system uses NAND and JFFS2 and it can provide ~50% compression ratio which makes 90MB to be ~45MB (or 56MB to be ~28MB). These are already small. For system not using NAND but eMMC for example, a few hundred MiB is not a big deal. In both cases, leaving pkg system in rootfs may be a better idea for its benefits.
