Most resources are not consumed by wonky code or dependencies. Most resources are consumed by images and sounds.

Surely it depends on the specific software.

Every decent piece of software has crap loads of resources: icons, texts, translations, manuals, sounds, fonts, etc. Even hello world app contains at least one resource - "hello world" string and what's funny is that executable meta data required by operating systems and the string take more space than the actual code to print this string.
