It wasn't just the resource usage but the "attack surface" and the comfort of knowing what is running and being able to turn things off because you don't want them. Linux was always all about that control but the philosophy seems to have been lost in favor of mimmicking Macos and Windows

I don't bother disabling it anymore. It does not even cross my mind. A few years ago it was mandatory. Probably also because I was using spinning drives.
