i am running kwin w/out compositing right now. so no, we have not removed all of these things. when the various checks were needed, we took the steps reasonable to fit the needs of the hardware and drivers available then. a major difference between graphics cards and batteries is that GPUs have been more than good enough for years and the linux drivers are finally catching up with their capabilities in terms of stability and reliability. battery technology and the quality of support for them in linux has been stagnant.
