The schema for Drupal core is not modular and never has been (at least looking back to 4.7).
How so? Offhand, in terms of optional components, I can only think of the unfortunate existence of the comment field in the node table.
Drupal's schema is managed by system.module, even for optional core modules. There's a bit of change in Drupal 6 to move some schema to other core, required modules, but the overall core schema is monolithic, not modular.
