Hi.
Is there a reason for not using the Brewfile from the dotfiles repo?
Or is it mainly for not having dependencies?

Yes, the reason I do this is to speed up new setups. I've found that when setting up a new Mac (and especially when testing!) I don't necessarily want to wait for every last program to install. The issue here is more with casks than cli formulae. So I've reduced the casks to a minimum for bootstrap, then I can complete the process with a single command once I'm ready.
