I don't think C# really has bloat — there is generally very little overlap between things they add, and each release they don't add a lot. This release's big thing was better extension method syntax and the ability to use "field" in properties. Each release is about that big, and I feel like the language is largely very easy to internalize and work in. New features are often more likely to be semantic sugar instead of some new big thing.
