Yes, we should consider it. @magicus [told me](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/5440#discussion_r705464312) that somebody wanted for "core" to remain, the last time the removal was suggested. I guess is it somewhat useful in porting work: producing the builds where only template interpreter is implemented.
