That doesn't really help, since the main advantage to this Change
Proposal is having a single package to update when fixes are needed,
but nearly all web applications take pieces of jQuery out and minify
them (taking only the parts they need in order to reduce download and
processing time to speed up execution).

By making this change, it means that the size of the jQuery files that
the user will have to download will be larger, resulting in performance
issues. (Since the minification and zipping will happen in the jQuery
package and be carrying the complete set of instructions).
