IMHO it is not a good idea to remove unused code partially like this
or unused code in one from another project if you just want to
suppress a compiler warning. It may suppress the warning, but
remaining bits in comments and/or conditional parts where the
compiler does not complain make developers confused. I think it is
more harmful than the warning.
This is another example of the phenomenon that small bikesheds are the
hardest to paint :-). It is surprisingly difficult to make many small
harmless-looking changes correctly without knowing their full context,
since just determining their full context may take a day or three.
Each.
