   I just looked at the 2 different descriptions in synaptic; standard   
   depends on a lot more than plasma.   
      
   My prediction is that if I would compare the two, when I would boot the   
   kde desktop instead of cinnamon, I would have a lot more kde-related   
   stuff with standard.   
      
   That being said, I don't recall the cinnamon menu being cluttered w/ kde   
   stuff, so maybe somehow that is being avoided differently than it was   
   years ago when I did a 'dual' Gnome-KDE exam.
