That surely includes plenty of globally installed dependencies. I looked at the package sizes for debian and it is around 100 kB for the python3 package and on the order of another 100kb for python3-minimal. Couldn’t find a cumulative install size, but it is surely not larger than a few megabytes.

Just span up a clean alpine linux container and installed python3, it added 51MB according to apk.
Arch does not do much spliting (except ruby where there is some kind of circular dependency)

Any way for: python - 75M perl - 59M ruby - 25M bash - 8M dash - 0.15M
