The general idea of Optimization is to fix little inconsistencies that bog the database down from running smoothly.
Sure, it might compact it/reduce size some after also deleting empty space characters. But I don't think we're talking
differences of, say, from 122mb to 112mb or even 122mb to 117mb for most people (you might get those numbers
if you optimize (complete) after a few years of "frequently" deleting stuff from the database without any maintenance).
Have you or anyone else ever noticed a "significant enough" difference in size to matter much (size wise,
not overall database health) after doing an optimization and pre-optimization comparison test?
