Could you please point me to some overview of the changes?
(Removal of e.g. WatchMorph is not mentioned in the „History

I do not see big differences in size:
3.9-final-7067 16,405,928 bytes
3.10beta.7143 16,669,808 bytes
Perhaps some other changes made the 3.10 image bigger?

I looked
at all items offered by Package Universe Browser but no package name seemed to suggest
that it contains the dropped morphs. Fortunately, I found following message which says how to load them:
