I think whole systems and factions should be cut, so the game scales down to the level the playerbase is at. We have Gallia because years ago we had 200 players. People will not like things getting cut. But, if they are keen on specific factions that get cut, they can simply take the core concept of that faction and create something themselves.
Removing content is the best way to destroy the mod. Discovery offers freedom, chances, possibilities and niches. People should never be forced to fill gaps, forced to interactions other people would like to see or join bigger groups because whatever reason. None of you is entitled to force players to anything, because the player decides what they do. Take features and content away and the only thing you will receive is less stuff to advertise, to discover and to play with.
If anything, you should have thought about your statement the moment you wrote "people will not like things getting cut" - because if people don't like things, they are more likely to leave.
Looking at numbers instead of what players actually want is the worst mentality to be encountered in this community.
