ever wonder why Linux distro images are so darn big? I do, a lot, because we have silly rules about it! here is the investigation for #fedora 43's workstation live: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2360056#c42 . It boils down to: "Firefox, LibreOffice, firmware, translations, CJK support, printing support, and podman/skopeo"

@adamw I'd argue strenuously for keeping LibreOffice on the grounds that people should have the option of *not* depending on the cloud for something as basic as an office suite. But maybe you could have a "minimal' build of it, excluding the Java integration and maybe also Base? Those are way less often wanted than the basic 3 office applications.
