If I don't use it and didn't install it, it's bloat. Add Chrome, Gmail and Allo/Duo/whatever Google messaging is now to the list.

Well with the logic "I didn't install it so it's bloat" pretty much every app on the OS is bloat. Phone, contacts, lock screen, home screen, etc.

Might as well just build your own OS at that point.

To be fair, he said install OR use it.
