featurectomy

/fee`ch@rekt@mee/ , n. The act of removing a feature from a program.
Featurectomies come in two flavors, the righteous and the reluctant.
Righteous featurectomies are performed because the remover believes the
program would be more elegant without the feature, or there is already an
equivalent and better way to achieve the same end. (Doing so is not quite
the same thing as removing a misfeature. ) Reluctant featurectomies are
performed to satisfy some external constraint such as code size or execution
speed.
