Guys, no ports are going to be get remove when they have dead projects or else. If these ports work correct, fetchable and not vulnerability, then there is no reason to remove. Just don't touch these ports, and these ports aren't going to bother and bite you. The BROKEN and pointyhat will tell you when those ports are ready to get remove. Therefore, please use your time on something else to make yourself more useful.
