If someone is willing to do the work and not fsck things royally I don't see a big deal about it. If nothing in system depends on it then it shouldn't be there, we can trim 250kb off of all our stages and liveCD's. Embedded gains 250kb off of their stuff as well. I just don't want to see giant h0rkage in the tree because the person doing the work didn't do a good enough job. *mutters something about tree changesets*.

No. I just don't see the point to unnecessarily remove a package of 249.72 KB that might be very tricky to find out all of its dependencies and will lead to (unnecessarily) ebuild rewriting. bc is the kind of application that has been around long time enough to cause tricky problems, that's fine ... as long as it isn't unncessarily.
