No, that was not what I was talking about. In this browser discussion, I am not interested in ways to understand complexity as your proposed solution. I think the fact that the browser needs to be this huge is a signal that things are very, very wrong, and a new solution for application distribution needs to come. I am not trying to understand the current browser's code nor looking for ways to deal with huge messes. I can't believe the the web and the browser are the better solution for this problem.
