I guess we need to define minimal.

I have nitrile gloves in most of my kits, but not in the minimal kit the purpose of which is to handle small scrapes and stay small enough. The kit in my truck is far from minimalist and the GHB in my truck is also big enough for gloves. But the purpose of those kits alone warrants gloves. I guess I draw the line for minimalist below the point where gloves come into play.
