"Profit" might not be the right word, but I think the point of removing
things that aren't indispensable is to reduce resource use.  The upside
for end users is that it can improve performance (and/or leave more room
for other things), the upside for the company is that they may be able
to use a cheaper flash memory, thus lowering the production costs.
