Ah, so that's why you exclude the strings in -betterC whose main 
reason for existing is targeting resource-limited 
microcontrollers, yet include them now in a default build, which 
is aimed at main computers with gigabytes of space. I understand 
now.


...oh wait it currently does EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE. If you are 
seriously concerned about the bytes, why include them in -betterC?
