Historically true, but the last couple of times the topic came up on
this list, no one stepped forward to defend stripping. See threads
starting at:

 - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2017-11/msg00104.html
 - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2018-03/msg00048.html
(which later strays from stripping in general to the implementation
details of a -mom fix)
 - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2018-03/msg00054.html

Does anyone want to argue in favor of continuing to strip the macro packages?
