Can you give me a plausibly rational usage case where it is in the
best interest of the targeted usage group of any gstreamer based
application to not have ogg vorbis playback capability rolled into the
set of plugins? I can't.

Taking things to the extreme of ultimate modularity is a fallacy.
Making components modular has tradeoffs in terms of usability and the
discussion to increase modularity needs to have a usage case point of
view in mind.
