I agree and disagree.

Yes, in Games. There, the longer the more, duplicated assets too (like, all the data in every level package, even though every level only needs 10% of the data). Because user storage is cheaper than optimization.
Sometimes in tools too, often crappy tools with abundance of animations. But usually it's cheaply made software in a framework dragging lots of boilerplate with it. There it's loc again.

No, not in office suites and Wordpad.

Btw, why is vector graphics so rarely used for simple icons?
