The general argument is that the mere size of a big program is a problem in itself, and considerable efforts, in particular choosing a low-bloat language, are definitely worth the trouble.

I'm not qualified to judge it--it sounds plausible, but I'm guessing at what a lot of the words mean.

Here's a cute quote:
