Though I can't stop you from bloating your environment, not everybody
believes in bloatation. Along this discussion, I remember two people said
they use window system only because they need multiple terminals (their
articles have expired on my site).

If one is running only one active process because he has limited
amount of real memory, memory consumption increase and performance
decrease by shared libraries is a curse.
