Default Rib cap strips

Has anyone thought about not installing the strips that go on the tops of all the wing ribs? Parts B6-21 I think. They don't seem like they're going to any strength. My best guess it that they're there for Monokoting. Any thoughts on that? If they are just for the Monokote, they don't need to be. My pizazz wing is set up just like this. The ultracote adheres to the sheeted leading edge and the sheeted trailing edge and thats it. No wing ribs (except of course the outermost ribs). Seems like a good place to save some weight. Any thoughts on their reason for being?

Thanks!
