Bloat is bad, but saving me time it takes to type redeems some of it. One of the reasons this binary is so small is because it's dynamically linked, so some space was saved when systems started moving away from static binaries. If nitpicking is in order, this file's size is still under default block size (16 KB) and there's plenty of stuff to fit in there to fill it.
