"De-bloated" implies that the stuff removed is "bloat", i.e. worthless. I wouldn't assume that a "de-bloated" install was any less suitable for general purpose computing tasks.

I'd consider that a poor assumption. If you try to use this to install a wide range of applications you run into one of two issues, you rebloat the system, or some things fail to run.

I think the core question is what is the definition of bloat.
