Somebody once said: "the optimal number of optional features in a spec 
is zero", and "you're done with a spec when there's nothing left to 
remove" (maybe it way Yaron G.).

Of course that doesn't always work well, but there's a lot of truth in 
it. But: if we're really concerned with the size of the spec than there 
are far bigger parts that could be removed.
