Not only that but it's mandatory starting with 12.1

I believe Juan works for a software vendor (apologies if I'm wrong).  If so
would you let your customers remove things they've determined they don't
need.  And still support them. You'd need to provide pretty strong evidence
that unexecuted code had a measurable performance impact.

Finally there are a bunch of notes from metalink where absent or partially
installed features themselves cause upgrade issues.

So my advice (not a shock to anyone here I expect) show your evidence , log
a bug and don't do it.
