I am not disagreeing that it would be nice to have this extra info available. And some of it wouldn't increase the file size at all, cause the info is there, it's just not being accessed. But the issue of file size is not just one of HD space. Once the files get to a certain size they could begin to be a problem for people playing multiplayer. PBEM, PBW, TCP/IP, all three can be hampered if the files get too big.
