it's not bloat if i wanted it and installed it.
It is bloat if dependencies aren't defined properly and the packager defines a too broad set of dependencies.
(Disclaimer: I don't use Arch myself but I am a packager of a small "scratch my own itch" but public repository for another distribution.)
Btw I don't use Arch?
Yeah I remember that one time I tried to uninstall Banshee because I didn't want it and Ubuntu's repos were set up that it by default just tried to uninstall GNOME entirely. And it was GNOME 2 so uninstalling it was a bad thing at the time.
