>>>The second problem is the sheer amount of storage required. 20 MB was a lot of storage on XT-type systems
That is a lot of bits for an XT. What is being bundled in to use so much storage space? Asking for a friend.

  If it runs on DOS and is open source or public domain and someone wants to build an installation package for it, FreeDOS will bundle it. Plus it includes docs, localization for every language, and tons of other stuff that's useful if you have the space, but on an XT you don't.
