This isn't about file size. You only load what libraries you need, so even if we add a dozen, it doesn't have any performance implications.

There's more to writing a library like this than just writing a bunch of code. The code for an auth library is quite simple, which is why there are so many of them. It gets a bit more difficult as you move into permissions and making it flexible enough a wide variety of applications (from simple one person login, to a full fledged cms with layered permissions).

However at that point it no longer qualifies as a "simple" library in my book.

The larger portion is that any addition to the core needs to be tested, documented, and subsequently supported. This takes away from resources that could otherwise be used to improve the existing code base.
