While this of course is true, one of the the strategical advantages of 
fpc/Lazarus above Delphi is that it is inherently cross-platform: 
multiple CPU archs, multiple OSes, and multiple "WidgetTypes" allow for 
using it in multiple purposes, including Desktop, embedded, CGI, ...

Unfortunately many contributors ignore the non-Desktop uses and just 
assume a GUI enabled Widget type is available in all projects, even 
thought the functionality they are working on does not require this.
