If you want to disagree, I think you can find better ways to do that but my point is simply that any daemon by default where it is not necessary for majority of users = resource waste. Incidentally, there *are* distributions including cron but not a mta by default. Anyway a feature proposal has been made at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NoMTA We will get off inertia and do something about it now.
