They are the same size because the dictionary info isn't actually in Dictionary.app -- it's stored in /Library/Dictionaries instead. OS X has system wide dictionary support so that Apps can use them as well.

RE: Apple's program sizes
I just got rid of all of the designable.nib files on my 10.5.3 installation under /Applications, and it freed up about 500MB total -- 200MB in Mail.app alone. Now, there are other apps in there besides the ones that come with Leopard, so it's not fair to say that it's all cruft with Leopard.
Now my app sizes are more in line with the Snow Leopard sizes. What's annoying about this is that Apple should release this as part of 10.5.4, IMO, but instead are choosing to wait til 10.6 which may or may not be released for PPC Macs.
