Whether or not to delete code that may be unused is always a judgment
call. I think we are sometimes too aggressive about this. Particularly
for things that might be used by custom reports. Unless the code is
potentially causing problems and there is a clear alternative to it, I
think it should stay. The hour or two I spent sorting this out negates
much of whatever time was saved by removing this and I would have had to
do that sooner or later.
