the pb is to know what is "functional". We may patch code to remove deps
and see the final GUI.... but would not work for everythings.... And we
do not know software enough to validate it in such case

Amazon sdk for storage indeed. Do we need it ? Well it is part of code.
Removing it, again, would imply to also remove references in menu etc...
(or wherever is used).

Lots of work to remove features, or more difficult to maintain afterward.
