If we don't add the Android port, would that help the would-be users of 
it (whether the selected alternative is to move it outside the core, or 
not develop it anymore)? Probably not.

It seems more like you are concerned about having an extra thing on your 
plate, which is totally reasonable. And we've talked in the past about 
trying to make Emacs more modular (meaning, moving more stuff out). 
Unfortunately, platform ports are not in the category of things that are 
easy to split off. Not currently, at least.
