imo, who cares? I ran a laptop with a 128gb ssd for a while, much smaller than what most people would deem reasonable, and even at that size 1gb is still an insignificant fraction. Worst case scenario the empty space in the esp is some extra blocks for the drive to swap through. (Very important for SSDs)
