Comment(by prettyboymp):

 If a new post_type doesn't support some of the default meta_boxes that a
 page does, it shouldn't have to go through removing them.  Shouldn't the
 following metaboxes be added outside of edit-form-advanced.php
 specifically for post_type of 'post' and then the plugin should add these
 if the post_type the plugin is adding support it?

 post_excerpt_meta_box
 post_trackback_meta_box
 post_custom_meta_box
 post_comment_meta_box
 post_slug_meta_box
