I'm curious of the benefits of removing them?
The elephpants are cached very harshly, and their size is less then
the size of the fonts loaded - and are on pair with the CSS (and
actually smaller then the css files before I compressed them, even
after the removal of ~1500 or so lines you did).
I think they are misunderstood and preemptively judged and sacrificed
without any real reason.
