"Simplistic" is probably not what you really mean.... but I've still saying that 26MB (Nova Launcher) is not exactly a lot of "extra garbage".
Meaning others will try out key features on the phone or launchers and use them or find them useful...I find em annoying..so I don't mess with them..I disable every not used app I can..wish they were able to be deleted..
Swipe to wake, knock on(g3), daydream..all useless to me by preference.

Uncluttered, not weighted down by anything...and you seem to be taking exception to "extra garbage" ..but to me all extra apps I have on my phone that I don't want or use are just that..extra garbage. Why is that hard to understand? I'd really love to be able to remove the other 20-30+ apps I have disabled as well. And all of the widgets that are taking up space for no reason for me.
I'm the type that if I have a motor capable of making say 800 hp to the rear wheels...but if i add the extra weight of leather seats, and all sorts of luxury add ons..I know I lose performance due to the extra weight...so I like to keep the things drawing from my processing cycles to a minimum..
So what I do is I go in further and cut the extra weight down, make as little friction in the belt assembly as possible, make sure its "base lined" ...familiar with the new z28 Camaro??? Sorta like that..instead of 15 speakers for a Bose radio system that I don't need..I run one speaker. I disable everything I don't use(that I can). That's just me..that's just an example.. I don't actually mess with the speaker of my phone..I am referring to apps

Remember that old saying: "one man's trash is another man's treasure". My phone is similar to 94lt1, pretty simple & clean. But that's just my personal preference. The beauty of Android is all of the custom "stuff" we can do...or not do. It's great to have so many choices in how we setup and use our phones.

When I first got into Android I tried every launcher. I swear I've tried damn near everyone. Always looking for something different. I used Nova on my HD once they added "Remove clock from the notification tray". I hate that clock. Why must that be there Google?
Of course we get what you stock folks are laying down. But as for a car analogy and adding weight? Pfft. Adding Nova is like adding Rain-X to your windshield for us.

Maybe from my phone, because my "Data" is almost 12MB:
P.S. How do I get my attachment to show?

Do you find random apps that you've already closed or haven't used in forever showing up in it on the Turbo? Seems like my Note 4 randomly brings apps back to life, even ones that do nothing in the background.

Oh yea! 
Could be because I have a close all option. That seems to be the main culprit on the Note 4.
