Depends on the nut, doesn't it? Anyhoo, I don't understand where you get the 50+ megabytes. I see two dependencies in stable (python3 and python3-uno), a package size of 48.8 kB, and an installed size of 327.0 kB. So I'm understanding the package does not depend upon the installation of LibreOffice proper (the redoubtable "stack"?). Perhaps my comprehension is faulty. -- "An autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful.
