Plugins exist. There is no excuse for bloat8ng the browser with these seldom used niche features by default, espexially when they represent 5% if what the AI component is doing and the other 95% are harmful to literally every living thing on the planet.

I dont consider any of those features to be bloat. "Harmful to every living thing on the planet" wtf are you referring to here?
