Dude. I actually have sources for most of my installed packages lying around, because Gentoo. Do you know how much space that source code takes up?
Just under 70GB. And pretty much everything but maybe the 10GB of direct git pulls is compressed, one way or another.
That means that even if your distro is big and has 100 people on development, they would each have to read 1GB or more of decompressed source just to cover the subset of packages installed on my system.

How fast do you read?
Lol read and understand it.
I’m looking at bringing Dillo back into Gentoo atm. I had to read 15k lines of code, and that’s just what’s different since the last release…
