Since it is the weekend, I'll start with the flippant one: I'm surprised you haven't forked gnome-icon-theme yet and removed all the symlink bloat yourself. Apparently, fighting bloat in your own desktop is cool as long as you can rely on somebody elses bloat... Now the more serious one: Your numbers are wrong.
