Do people really have such a violent reaction to using ~100MB of disk space for one of the most advanced compilers in the world?

I have 2TB of internal SSD storage on my laptop, and I can buy extra TB's for $50 each.

Why on earth would I balk at 100MB?

Some webpages serve half of that in optimized images for crying out loud, lol.

To get a bit of perspective, these peoples should be invited to briefly switch to windows, and to try installing the MSVC compiler...
