i am running kwin w/out compositing right now. so no, we have not removed all 
of these things.

when the various checks were needed, we took the steps reasonable to fit the 
needs of the hardware and drivers available then.

a major difference between graphics cards and batteries is that GPUs have been 
more than good enough for years and the linux drivers are finally catching up 
with their capabilities in terms of stability and reliability. battery 
technology and the quality of support for them in linux has been stagnant.

(there are other issues to consider in this particular subject, but they've 
been considered previously)
