For what it's worth, one of the complaints was:

  I do not want emacs suddenly swamping the CPU on my laptop
  unpredictably.  I want all this work (in the common case) done while I
  know I'm connected to power, before I head out.

...and we have for a very long time, perhaps as long as I've been
working with the packaging, had users who are concerned with disk space
usage, and ask for smaller package footprints.

Those concerns may not carry the day, but they do exist.
