My guess is that most people would be ok to get rid of them, but don't care
enough to argue about it when faced with the inevitable arguments like "but
it does not hurt to keep them", "it might prove useful one day" or "it has
historical value" :-)
My take on this is would be to do a giant cleanup (delete all irrelevant
branches), but archive these beforehand somewhere "just in case" to be on
the safe side.
