I just didn't want to forget.\r\n\r\nThis is more of a question than an issue. Both the readme here, and the babel site have a section for what to do about possible bloat from babel. On the site, which I assume is more authoritative, it talks about using external helpers. In the readme here it talks about selfContained, which seems by my reading to be more about not impacting global environment rather than reducing final bundle size. Which seems less applicable to the case of writing an application using webpack.\r\n\r\nIt would be helpful to have a little more explanation as to when and why you'd do which. A page on the babel site would probably be most appropriate, the readme likely just pointing to it."}}
