Clearance is needed for high voltage/safety reasons in some cases.

Sometimes clearance is needed for RF and low capacitance designs.

Why do you have to remove large areas of copper? All you need to do 
is cut a narrow path around the desired conductor traces and just 
leave the rest of the copper on the board. If you are concerned about 
leaving it floating free, then add some vias or jumpers to ground it.
