Why?

The less parts of kernel you use - the less possibility
to got kernel panic. If first case use only 25% of kernel code
and second variant use 50% of kernel code and if we suppose
what bugs are distributed uniformly - in second case
we have 2x possibility to got kernel panic.

I know this by writing unit tests: when making my code 100%
covered by unit tests - the most bugs I found in last 2% of code.

Until some code fragments/branches not used in unit tests
- I can't see and feel bugs exists in such code fragments.

in (2)

I can't say this.
