No doubt that shared libraries have their own complexity, but I'm still
not sure the world (or at least the Linux machines I work on!) would be a
better place without them.  I would surely need more disks and more memory
to run everything, and probably more time to load the slightest program.

But I might be missing the meaning of the original question.  If by any
chance you feel like elaborating a bit, that could be instructive for me.
