To each their own. I far prefer my UX at the cost of RAM. I agree, there are a lot of abstractions in languages which leads to this bloat, but do I think we'd have better user experiences if everyone write perfectly efficient assembly? I don't, fwiw. Do you?

I know you're not suggesting everything needs to be perfect. We just have different lines we draw where our UX outweighs things like RAM or disk space. For me, if it gives a great UX, 75MB is a tiny fraction of my RAM, I'd gladly pay it.

Besides, I'm only going to have one copy of this thing running. If it was 75MBx25 or something then I'd be concerned, but 75x1? meh.
