Do non-enabled modules matter?

Agaric wants to know...

can a module that is not enabled harm a Drupal site in any way, by breaking a site if something is wrong in the module or just slowing performance down. Or is a disabled module only relevant on the admin/build/modules page?

In other words, is there any point to keeping modules you are not using out of your modules directories?

Agaric thanks you!
