Hi :) What may be trivial to one person is a big deal to another. Even just 'trivial' changes have involved reading, understand, possibly translating and then re-typing stuff that is waaaay beyond the ken of most of us.
A major part of the code clean-up has been taking out comments some of which are still there even though the code they were commenting about may have been dropped a decade ago. The download size of LibreOffice is under 70% the size it was when the projects forked. Smaller, lighter, faster might be trivial to some but many of us really appreciate the reduction in size and increase in speed.
