Perhaps not, but Linux and openSUSE are not supposed to be just for the

Right, it is for many types of people, which is precisely why we request having the possibility of removing what we do not want to have running/installed. Some want it, fine. Some do not want it, fine. Oh wait... you can not 'not want' it, it is mandatory per dependencies.
