I also find going stoveless eliminates a lot of stuff. Not just the stove but the fuel and the cookset too.

I agree about the clothing thing with the exception (perhaps) of taking a warm jacket like a thick fleece or mummy in case one becomes stationary in bad weather. It may be a geographic thing but I find I can stay warm enough when riding but can chill if stopped for a length of time, like a break down.

Warm clothing can take up room but doesn't really weight much so I don't fixate on volume only. I will forgo a lot of other unnecessary comfort items like stoves, extra shoes, street clothes etc... but not a set of weather gear that will handle the worst predicted conditions.
