I would like to point out that true-unix ways like RTFM and "use the source
Luke" are highly user-unfriendly. There is a difference between growing and
"bloat" that comes about because the Wintel alliance wants to sell ever new
computer systems. The only way to determine whether groff became bloated, in
my opinion, is to determine the least kind of a computer system groff runs
on. Is it a Minix system, or an ELKS system? What CPU? How much HD space?
All these questions would need answering, if we were to condemn groff as a
bloated system objectively.
