What about what I proposed, i.e. not byte-compiling those files, and in
general paying no attention to them?
It would take quite a long time for that to have an effect on the size
of Emacs. And it wouldn't require any maintenance; we could have a
folder acting as a dumping ground for Lisp that would otherwise be
deleted.

What about an ELPA package, playing the same role as the dumping ground
folder?
I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this, thanks.
