[Newbies] Morphs dropped from 3.10?

>> 3.10 is the first release without some things you
have in previous Squeak,

Could you please point me to some overview of the changes?



 


(Removal of e.g. WatchMorph is not mentioned in the „History
of the 3.10 release.“)

I do not see big differences in size:


 


3.9-final-7067 16,405,928 bytes


3.10beta.7143 16,669,808 bytes


 


Perhaps some other changes made the 3.10 image bigger?

I looked
at all items offered by Package Universe Browser but no package name seemed to suggest
that it contains the dropped morphs. Fortunately, I found following message which says how to load them:
