Most of that isn't INI stuff, but some of it is. You can toggle Campaign History in there, if you go to the Laptop Settings section, and you can disable the weather systems piece by piece through the Tactical Weather Settings section. The load screen hints are in Graphics Settings, but you can also find the TableData\LoadScreenHints xml file and just write whatever you want in there, if that's what you're after.
Removing the buttons is more complicated. You'd need to find and remove the user interface elements (the button graphics, as well as the code that states where to display them, and what to display there,) and then probably replace the part of the interface where those buttons are displayed with a previous version of the graphics. And I don't know where you'd find that at this point.
Removing Mercs is also complicated. They have data spread out all over the tables, so if you remove somebody, you're also going to have to remove every reference to their ID number, or you may run into errors. You're probably better off just not hiring Mercs you don't like.
Removing items is much easier, depending on the item. All you've got to do is find what you want to remove in the TableData\Items xml, and either delete it's entry, or replace the item with a NADA entry. NADA's are place holders, so they aren't supposed to show up in the game. You may need to manually remove NADA items from merc inventories, equipment lists, and so on, because if they do show up, they can cause crashes. But usually they don't, so it's not a huge deal. If you delete an entry all together, you'll need to find the corresponding item in the weapon, explosive, magazine, etc xml, and delete that too, and then you'll have to go through the tedium of adjusting the index numbers for every item in the list after it, and every item in the weapon, explosive, magazine, etc xml after it.
There are two short ways to just cut down on clutter. If you start a game in Realistic mode, any items tagged Sci Fi will just never show up. That's mostly futuristic weapons, ammo, and the like, and some stuff that's like, a neat historical oddity, but only 10 or 20 of them were ever produced. Super powered and gag weapons, basically. You can also switch Tons of Guns off in the new game menu, but I've never clicked that button in my entire life, so I don't know what it actually does, other than reduce the number of guns.
I hope at least some of that helps.
