question regarding TB bypass hoses

why cant I just remove the hoses completely? I can cap off the T with the bleeder screw and then cap off the drivers side one and remove all the excess hose? does coolant have to flow through this path with or without the TB?

I have the car all apart right now and it would be easy to do. already got rid of the lower right water pump (facing the engine) hose that is #16 in the diagram below.



looking to get rid of as much clutter as I can.

93-94s have an odd arrangement. Just make sure you leave the steam pipe connected to the radiator and you should be ok. You could also convert to 95-97 hoses that don't have the branch hoses like 93-94s.
