-1. This project is for devs, the main tool used by dev is the debugger and disabling debug symbols only breaks the workflow for users and makes life harder. Debug symbols have no effect on resource usage unless you're loading ELF directly on target (kernel mode, modules) or something is broken in the build system or linker. Debug symbols are DWARF information that get embedded into the ELF not binary.
