This is something I've been looking for (the <50MB models in particular). Unfortunately my feedback is as follows:

I realize that I can run a multiple versions of python on my system, and use venv to managed them (or whatever equivalent is now trendy), but as I near retirement age all those deep dependencies nets required by modern software is really depressing me. Have you ever tried to build a node app that hasn't been updated in 18 months? It can't be done. Old man yelling at cloud I guess shrugs.
