Regarding binary size: If one can use dynamic linking, should we link the library statically? What if static linking can provide performance improvement (LTO for example, if you compile the library from source)? If the user is concerned about updating dependencies, what if the program is open source and they can update the dependencies freely and recompile it?
And as scripting languages like Python and JS becomes popular, do we just consider the binary size for bloatware? What about their dependencies?
