If not, cmake code can be greatly reduced, Find modules are not needed and we can just link against CONAN_PKG::libraryname

I disagree. I think if the stuff is there and working I am in favor of holding on to it. Do we really
wankt to force conan onto everyone?

Yes, life would be a lot easier if everyone used conan ;)

We aren't testing without conan, so we won't know if/when we break building without it.
