Resolution Note:
By default all serialized properties will be included in a component regardless of the state at build. This is because we do not know how the system will be used in the player, users often switch modes on/off as part of their effect and switching from billboard to mesh is not uncommon. By stripping the referenced mesh we would create a different behaviour in the player from the editor which would be seen as a bug. The way to remove the asset from the build is to just remove the reference to the asset.
