Roll Bar Question

First, let me say I know most of you are going to think I'm nuts for even thinking of this, but I have my reasons...

I was wondering if the roll-bar serves any structural support for the vehicle other than safety in the event of a roll.

I'm considering taking it out completely along with the soft top for several reasons. First, I have a Zeintop and have no plans what so ever of removing it. I plan on keeping it on year round. Next, I'm 6'4, so the roll bar wouldn't help me anyway if the car did roll. The other reasons are obvious, a little more storage space, easier access to the engine for air filter changes, etc (won't have to take off the hard top to do this) and a cleaner look inside the cabin.

Any thoughts?
