Logitech's offline installer is 1.2GB. This application's installer is 15.3MB.

Seems nuts that you would go through the trouble of air gapping a system then use a Bluetooth keyboard.

I maintain a homebrew tap for the offline Options+: https://github.com/gohanlon/homebrew-tap

The tap includes a GH action to track upstream releases (as long as I notice the PR!). Also, the offline version only compensates for some of the issues with Options+.

It's a sad state of affairs that a mouse settings program isn't 'offline' by default. Except maybe an update check it has zero needs to be online.
