Everyone knows it, no matter how gifted you are chances of your discovering something important is same as any random guy discovering something equally important, i.e., mostly random.

You limit access to the data, you limit ability of others to make an important discovery. Status quo won't offer free access to this data because it apparently reduces their importance.

Yes, they can certainly help in cases where you are offering your images to others.

Assuming, initial size is zero. If you install 100MB of packages in layer 1.

Then in second layer, you uninstall of those packages. Your image size will still be 100MB.

If you are optimizing for high density, a smaller size certainly helps.

Font size at 23px. Seriously?

Just skimmed and now my eyes are hurt.
