Interesting question....
A standalone won't necessarily eliminate the TPS. Most standalones use the TPS for at least something like determining if the car is on/off idle, decel fuel cut, accelerator pump, flood clear, etc. But what it does mean is that you have a choice to run any TPS you wish.
For the most part most standalones can be configured to work without a TPS but you may loose certain functions (flood clear and decel cut being the most important).

The only time I've ever used the TPS for the accelerator pump is on the Megasquirt, and I think one Haltech setup.
The Microtech does MAP based acel enrichment very well.
