Why ruin it for the majority because a few doesn't known what they are doing? I know the argument is that everyone has the disk space these days, but I still don't like to install the entire X window system, compilers etc. for a small embedded system. What's next, force install of Libreoffice and Firefox because a few desktop users can't use the package manager?

The thing I realized about OpenBSD is it’s made by and for the developers. They are going to do what works for them and fits their priorities. Not what works for the widest possible audience.

Yes and I agree with 99% of all the things they do, and appreciate them, but the thing with threating to merge all file sets because the few people non-deliberately choosing the non-default case are tripping over their incorrectly tied shoelaces too much. why not just ignore those few people and not force X window system binaries on thousands of network equipment?
