On the contrary, bundling in your dependencies is the very definition of good, user-centric design.
Disk space has now become so cheap that there's really no tenable excuse for shipping your software with "some assembly required" and "batteries not included" labels. Which is why pretty much every major platform has quit doing it. The lone holdouts are linux distributions. And even they betray their implicit agreement that it's bad design when they resort to employing ungainly feats of contortionism known as "package management systems" in an effort to duct tape over the problem.
