Ehhhh, I'm not sure I want this.

Sometimes I really do want to strip, outright strip. It's ok, I'm a
big boy, I know what I'm doing. If I enable both the strip extension
and evolve, why would evolve decide that I don't want to strip,
against my explicit wishes?

I could see a case for Evolve aliasing strip to prune if the strip
extension isn't loaded, but not for acting against my explicit wishes.
