Not sure Brick is now "more modular" and "lighter", without X-Tag - in fact, it's quite the opposite. They've dramatically increased the weight of each component, and constantly repeat the same code over and over, much of which is derived from X-Tag's internal methods:
The above examples call into question the claim that the move was to increase modularity and decrease weight - clearly that isn't the case when you actually look at the code.
