It just pulls off. Doesn't add anything aesthetically, and I would think it only traps heat. Just thought I'd suggest it....

Very true. I would think the only reason to keep it would be protective, but the most fragile portion - the cooling fins - are already exposed.

My thoughts exactly, that's why mine is sitting in the toolbox.
