Not sure if I understood that correctly... do we make the decision depending on the platform, or do we remove the hinting data for all platforms just to improve the compression?

Poor wording on my part. Font hinting meta data is removed for platforms that do not support it. Ex: windows does, and hinting data is retained for improved rendering.
