Does official will further improve shader stripping system to make player runtime build even faster that currently it's still very slow when there's huge amount of shader variant. Even better make the system able to manually pick the item to strip to get more aggressive optimization when auto stripping doesn't work well
#ETA of better shader stripping system

Hey. We are actively working on a better system shader variant exclusion. The goal there is to provide a declarative API for configuring gshader features. And be able to switch keyword types, depending on the required degree of runtime control and platform. For example, be able to convert some keywords to dynamic branching.
For U6 and URP, you can follow these guidelines for removing shader variants https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.0/Documentation/Manual/urp/shader-stripping.html . If you happen to modify or extend the render pipeline, you can also use the new Filtering attributes to more aggressively remove keywords https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/ShaderKeywordFilter.FilterAttribute.html
