Sure, but there's other data than that. I do music, as a hobby.  A
project for an electronic track can have 20GB because everything I use
is "statically linked" into it.  Doing it this way has all the
advantages static linking for binaries has.

When your tracks have 20GB but 90% the data is shared, and you keep
full history for your track, dedup becomes invaluable.
