I suspect that many people don't care whether you remove IDs, pagelists, etc. to save a few bytes. It is your insistence that this is the
ONE TRUE WAY that most people don't care for.
For most people, trying to save every possible byte is no longer needed. It's not like when I was programming building controls with an 8-bit processor with 4K of RAM and 8K of ROM and I used every byte saving trick to cram everything into that 8KB ROM. Though in many ways, programming microprocessors back then was a lot more fun. Flashback to Byte magazine and "Computers, the world's greatest toys".
