I think his aim is to make the source files smaller (and probably less
cluttered), not the executable(s).

That is correct Dave & Lucian. In one application there is, I believe,
a lot of code that is has been disable (ie, no path to it) but not
removed and there is a number of us think it is time to remove this
code (which will be donated to the 'obsolete' directory, just in case
it is required in the future...).
