What do I really need from Clover and which kexts to block?

Dear All,

With the help of the community, Tony and Toleda I have a working Mojave fresh install.

I was wondering though, if I could improve stability by loading only drivers I really need.

From Clover there are numerous boxes one could tick / un-tick but for someone like me (only partially tech-savvy) it is somewhat difficult to derive, which exact options would be really needed.

I listed my loaded kexts running kextstat on my system and it lists loads of kexts which I believe I could even get by without. (Please comment if I am wrong).

e.g. for sound, wouldn't the default AppleHDA.kext be obsolete, since we have Lilu and AppleALC? There are also loads of kexts around XHCI and EHCI USB drivers or something like that.

I have Intel5000 kext (I think this is from Apple) - but I wonder if WhatEverGreen is mandatory for my Ci5-4460 with Intel4600 - or just better...?

Thank you in advance for any comments or pointing me to the obvious. :eek:
 
To further explain

Here are the kexts that I use.

FakeSMC, Lilu with AppleALC and WhateverGreen, and in my case the MoBo has the Intel 1000 LAN port.

Code:
$ kextstat | grep -v com.apple

But the system loads a lot of other kexts:

Do I really need things like AppleBacklight and AppleBacklightExpert, I believe these supposed to control the keyboard backlight (or screen brightness) on a real mac/macbook?

Same way, since we use an original AppleHDA - Lilu is patching that on the fly? Is that the case with WhateverGreen and
AppleIntelHD5000Graphics kext?
 
To further explain

Here are the kexts that I use.

FakeSMC, Lilu with AppleALC and WhateverGreen, and in my case the MoBo has the Intel 1000 LAN port.

Code:
$ kextstat | grep -v com.apple
