So therefore shared libraries aren't necessary.
Great chain of logic: I don't think it's necessary for me, therefore it's
not necessary for anyone, therefore anything which might support it is not
necessary.

I'm one of them. These days, I run several terminals, a mail reader, a file
browser, a dictionary, and a thesaurus. Of those, the mail reader and
terminals get the most use. Given that I only have 8Mbytes on the machine,
*any* savings helps, despite what you seem to think.
