Question SDL EGR Removal question

I am in the process of removing the EGR from my SDL. It has been disabled for a while but I've decided that the useless chunk of metal is probably just adding weight and adversely affecting my fuel economy (Just put that in for any EPA Inspectors that might be reading ) so its coming off.

I have read that the two EGR Vacuum solenoids/relays/switches can cause leaks so is there any harm in bypassing them altogether ?
Do they perform any other function other than controlling the EGR valve.

Thanks
