Can you even imagine a single drawback? This is the same as asking: "is there is a drawback of washing hands?".

Solution 1

Yes, it is.

If you perform code analysis, microsoft would show it as a warning if you have any unused warnings.

Why use anything which is not in use?

This is not only a good practice, it's a must. I would rather like to have "Remove unused references", too. You should always rigorously remove everything unused and take it as one of the most important engineering principles, in all branches of engineering, not only software.
