Isn't that functionally the same as being bloated?

It is in a way yes. However a of the bloat I feel is mainly hard drive bloat in the sense that not only do I not use it, It's never even loaded or visible in the application.

So it's different from "feature bloat" in the regular sense, that is just tons of buttons for things you don't use.
