What does being opt-in or opt-out have to do with resource consumption? It will still consume resources even if you’re not using it. It might even reserve memory while inactive for faster startup by default.
Even if you completely disable it, just having it built into the default binary already consumes resources.
A disabled service will not consume any RAM. People just look for excuses to hate on it because it has AI in the name.
First it was that it would consume 4GB of RAM in the background. Then that it might reserve the memory just in case. Now the issue is that even if it didn’t, it would make the binary larger lol.
I sure hope you also complain about all the disabled drivers that ship with your Linux kernel.
