Generally, its easier to leave unused content in there, games companies will probobly only remove it if:
1.They plan to use that content in an expansion pack or addon for some purpose (in which case its removed because they dont want modders finding and using it)
2.They need to remove stuff in order to reach the size goals set down
3.There is some kind of external reason (e.g. rights holders for licenced games) to remove the particular items.
or 4.They could get in trouble leaving it in (after "hot coffee", I wouldnt be surprised to see some games developers removing anything not required by the game in case they get in trouble for what people do with it)
