You need some KDE libraries in order to be able to run some applications writtten for KDE. Check the box in "Remove Software" and see what messages come up - it will give you a list of programs which will also be reomved because of dependencies.
Do give it a try - I am sure you will see something that you would miss. I tried it once, and ended up having to reinstall everything when I realised how cool KDE is! Even if there is nothing there now, you may find that there is an app that you want to install, and that relies on a KDE app, which will (may) entail you reinstalling everything again. I know it increases the complexity of the system, but if you can spare the 30-100meg I would leave it.
Cheers
