I guess I meant a different "need" :)

What I meant was more like: "If we are already running an X server, do 
we really care to save the few (memory) kilobytes that the tiny version 
saves in contrast to providing a bigger feature set of the huge 
version".

Especially on todays machines where even tiny systems like the raspberry 
pi have plenty of memory.
