CARPE LECTOR:
I said "a minimalist Debian", NOT "the minimalist Debian" ;}
Circumstances have come together allowing me to do multiple installs.
As I have restricted bandwidth and DVD set are available on flash
devices, I recently purchased Debian 10.0 for AMD64.
I've done three installs today.
For maximum consistency, all used only drivers for the particular
machine and no "print server" {as I don't have any printers currently}.
The results were:
Pkg Count Disk space
MATE with standard utilities 1116 3.73 GB
CLI with standard utilities 136 1.01 GB
CLI w/o standard utilities 37 .87 GB
[1] Pkg Count reported by installer
[2] Disk space reported by Gparted Live
As time is available I intend to do a few additional installs.
One will of MATE with only dependencies, not recommended, packages
installed.

You are still coming through loud and clear.

Data are incontestible.
