You just stated it yourself. If you staunch all the leaks..

I rather suspect Iggy isnt interested in that. He has had his
building now....what..a year? And he as yet hasnt done it.

For what it's worth, I ran through that about two years ago. It took a
while to replace all the chuck o-rings, and find bubble-bleeds from a few
threaded fittings. But now, when the compressor shuts off at night, it
doesn't come on again until I use air the next day.

I still have to remember to remove TOOLS from any drop lines, because
tools seem to almost always leak a little.

A good "Monday Morning valve" set for daily on/off will accomplish almost
the same thing without quite as much fuss.
