Anyone willing to put forward an example of a game with an element that does indeed qualify as superfluous?
Superfluous to everyone, or superflous to someone? No game will generally have an element that's superfluous to everyone, because it can't be superfluous to the designer, or he wouldn't have put it in. Conversely, almost any game element is superfluous to someone, there are simply some people who prefer much simpler games than others, and so they are going to like taking elements out where possible, while others like leaving them in.
