And this is true for all systems. In the past I done it for my Plus, IIcx, IIci, LCs and Duo, 190 and 5300 laptops. With the PPC Machines, I stripped out the 68K code. The machines all run fast. And there is room for apps and large files.
This sounds like a great idea in theory, but I'm a tad unclear on one detail: How can you strip out ALL the 68k code from a 7.x system and still have it work? I was under the impression that there was still emulated 680x0 code scattered throughout until well into the OS 8.x days. Or do you only strip out the parts for which a native implementation is present?

A utility that could perform such stripping in an automated way, maybe via drag-and-drop, would be useful. Does anyone know if such a thing was ever made?
