Yes, and for the case of pandoc it’s significant.  The closure of
ghc-pandoc is >3GiB right now and with the changes it’s <200MiB.  This
affects lots of R packages that need Rmarkdown, and lots of bioinfo
packages.

There's no doubt that moving the static libs to their own output has a
significant impact on closure size.
