You haven't really looked at any of my designs so far, have you? I might have an odd coding style otherwise, but usually every feature I introduce is removable at the simple expense of setting a flag - if it isn't optional in the first place. You could wipe Advanced Weather from Flightgear at the simple expense of removing a menu item and a directory. So yes, I have considered the argument. But there's a thing as a proper solution arriving too late, and it occurs more often than you'd think. Besides - I hope you're not seriously considering a Nasal-rotated earth-coloured ball a potential problem for future development because it can't be removed properly... That'd be... a bit strange.
