As long as those leftover registry entries are not causing any issues,
you don't need to worry about them; they are quite harmless. If you are
so concerned about a pristine registry, perform a clean install of XP.

What terrible advice. This is like telling someone he shouldn't bother with showers or baths anymore because he'll never be as clean as he was when he was first introduced to his mom by the hospital nurse at baby ward.

Pretty obvious you aren't familiar with the registry, as your analogy is not remotely applicable.
