Ah, I see — this makes sense, thanks. In cases such as this the example set would need to be split up across multiple binary packages though — some would need to go into blast2 and some into ncbi-tools-bin (or ncbi-data, that would work as well…).
Anyway, I understand the motivation now and while I’m usually more of a minimalist I completely respect that approach!
Canberk, please don’t let that keep you from including examples :)
