Need to include a qualifier that they're identical size/complexity. I find it hard to believe an app exists for a serious "bulky" framework that uses 99.999% of the code in the framework. Once you get down to 0.1% or so it starts getting easier to maintain your own ten lines than to cooperate/tolerate someone elses 10K lines.
