It doesn't. The scim-bridge-agent package depends on scim now, so that
makes sure that the delay in starting up applications does not happen
anymore.

Anyways, if you have properly disabled support for complex characters,
then this doesn't affect you anyways, because neither scim, nor
scim-bridge will run.

If this still affects you, then your installation is probably messed up.
If this is the case, please post the output of:

im-switch -l

Wrong! The solution is to INSTALL scim, because scim-bridge depends on scim!
