I'm pretty much in agreement with you on this, DUB. It seems that the stuff people want to remove are those things of which they have little knowledge and/or understanding. Thus, it doesn't seem useful to them.
When thinking about such removals, it's best to first determine what it does...and why...before ditching it. But, that's not very convenient for most owners. Appearance and weight seem to be more important than function.
The fuel vapor collection system is a prime example. It takes no power for it to operate, it has almost no weight, and you can't really see it; but it does keep fuel vapors contained and even burns them later to gain a little energy that would have wafted off into the atmosphere. But, folks still want to discard it. Go figure....
