In the headlight relay mod, the relay is there to provide full battery voltage to the headlights without routing it through the headlight switch, which accomplishes brighter lights. It is the same for the window motors. You use the window switch to energize the relay to provide full battery power, which results in faster window operation. It has nothing to do with the wire size in the doors.
What you are referring to is practical, but it is not the window relay mod that the OP was asking about.
So it seems to me you and I are discussing apples and oranges
