Nice analysis, but I wanted to point out that "only" about 15000 LOC 
still comes down to around 75% more, which is considerable IMO.

Also, from the bzr code that I've seen (that I've looked at for the web 
graph stuff), it is very verbose, very enterprisey OOP code. Not at all 
like the very dense (in some places), mostly very Pythonic code in 
Mercurial.

Cheers,
