Yes, shared resources in the 3D part are key to solve many problems but we have a formidable number of scattered units around, some in super mods, others in single unit mods/addons
Therefore the best way to do an optimization that works for everyone would probably be to list the units and proceed in a collaborative effort to slowly make our way through it. I guess that IABL merchant fleet mod is one of the most spread around mods, but I have no idea if he already did that optimization.

I believe a program written to scan every dat file and remove the useless stuff would be the way to go. Then anyone could download it, run it, and carry on without the hassle of reinstalling and so forth. No MFM has not been optimized. It has 125 Units with the stuff.
