Is the savings in disk-space significant? Also, just because there is code in t.p.reflect that is not used within twisted itself does not mean that applications written using twisted are not using that code. I think, in general, everyone likes the notion of making a codebase smaller, but you always have to measure the benefit and the risk of doing so. Have a good one, L.
