Did you got much out of that era TP besides the ability to use the core language structures? A decent graphics/math lib written in TP could be much smaller than 1MB. There's tons of 64k demos written with Turbo Pascal (it helps that it has inline asm). By which I mean "decent" for that era. Say, a functional SVG engine would be something different of course. The math lib would probably also have to spend bytes on certain functionality that we'd today consider "core language".
