No need to remove mct.  The core should provide the basic building blocks.
Then external packages could build more feature-rich experience.
OTOH, in the process of mutual enrichment often external packages act as
a playing ground for new features, and when they mature, some of their
features are included in the core.  Even in this case the package could
continue existence with more peripheral features that satisfy even
more demanding users.
