Another perspective would be that by having this directly bundled in and not requiring a separate install, those with poor connection or rural areas that may not have people with the necessary expertise to set up Wolfram Alpha separately do not need to do so, and it will work OOTB. It's easier to execute sudo apt-get remove wolfram-engine than have someone separately having to download or copy the .deb over and install it with all the dependencies.
The church guys will say we need to have all the bible in the distros so they will not need to download. The biologists would say we all need all the biologists programs, chemists want theirs programs... oh come on!
oh the ads companies may say we need to download distros with all their ads, so we don't need to download it on every web page load, and they will be shown to country people with no connection... this seems convenient too.

Pretty dumb for those of us running 4gb SD cards.
The bloat is pretty incredible. I tried using the lite release, but because of the net-tools FUBAR I can't get it to configure the network correctly, so I'm left with the last pre-net-screwup version of Wheezy, so I'm sitting here trying to search and destroy all this garbage that I'll never use.

Removing wolfram-engine (10.3.1+2016012407)
good idea!
👍
I ran out of space and found this was one of the component that was causing it.
Removed it !

command should give you an idea of the last files touched by the OS- giving you a hint of what other components that could be chewing up disk space.
Thanks for this solution, it works like a charm 😄

you must be install again:
root@raspberrypi:# sudo apt-get install wolfram-engine# sudo apt-get purge wolfram-engine

Pretty inexcusable for them to bloat the distro with half a gig of stuff most people won't use...
