That's not what I had in mind. My point was about the cases where someone 
disconsiders some part of the program he views as not that important and 
deliberately reduces the resources for that part because he thinks it's 
not worth it. When it comes to user interfaces, the primary concern is to 
make the interface easy to use and remember by the user, not to write 
less lines of code.
