Why not just use an obfuscator? It produces clean and compact code. You can disable mangling of names and reformat code after obfuscation using a formatter with your own set of rules. IMHO, it better to use tool designed just for that, instead of performing obfuscation by hands.

I haven't seen a tool that can remove fluff and clean code. And I don't like formatters, because making the rules right is too complicated. I haven't seen a formatter that won't eventually mess up code that I carefully laid out.
