I suppose hatnotes might be seen as "clutter", if you like the substantive pages to be as minimalist and standard as possible, but can't see how that applies with disambigs or redirects. If the user is not at the page, they'll never notice the difference;  if they are, it's probably useful (as compared to being dead-ended after a search).

Unless there's some reason to tightly minimise the number of pages, that I'm missing...
