Everyone keeps saying this, and it's probably true. What I don't get is... why the hell these libraries everyone is using don't support MODULAR compilation. Why are they including stuff people aren't using?

I'm not an app developer. But I've known about libraries that section off lesser used code as "addons" since... well... since I started programming. This seems so fundamental I don't understand why everyone isn't doing it. Especially considering the gains are far greater in the mobile and web world than desktop.
