It is not clear to me what those are. See left insiders and right our stable release:

I also noticed that, it's quite annoying, because the setup process of the new insiders versions are even longer now...

Is the install size larger, or is it just redistributed?

Some of these at least we weren't shipping before, like vcruntime140.dll - if that stays, I can probably get the ripgrep binary to find it, and we won't have to ship a statically linked rg.exe, to save some KB.

The dlls make it about ~1.5mb larger I think (uncompressed).

It was an intentional decision to dynamically link the lib for the various reasons outlined in electron/electron#9443. Closing as not going to fix.
