When it comes to a backplate, if it's out-of-line, you have 2 other options besides removing and leaving it off:

1) Get one that is already a singlely routed long hole across all of the 6 holes.
2) If you have the right tools (or know someone who does), have it routed as above or rout it yourself.

Why shouldn't you leave off the backplate? Try using the trem.... and when you get some part of your clothes or body caught in the springs, you'll know the answer. Besides, uncovered, all kinds of crap can get in there. I found some squirrel's nuts under the springs one time..... of course, the rest of the squirrel was long gone! LOL
