Yes, in Linux, you can choose to install the bits you want, and the
package manager will generally handle the rest. However, to give you but
one example, if you just install Writer and Calc without the Base module
in Linux, then try and open the bibliography database that you can
access via the Writer menu, LibreOffice will crash.


On the Mac, I suppose you could just try deleting parts of the app
bundle and see whether it still functions correctly. To do that, you'd
have to right click or (Ctrl-Click) on the LibreOffice icon in the
Applications folder, and then display the packet contents via the
context menu that is displayed. This opens the packet up in a normal
folder like view with sub-folders. One could always try and delete bits
here and there, but I have absolutely no experience of this and of
course it may result in a completely unusable application afterwards.
