your disks maybe

mine in a HP SAN-Storage are not nor is it the overhead
on upgrades, overhead on backup-space and so on

the "disks are cheap" is a urban legend from homeusers
calculatiing with their cheap SATA disks :-)

having 400 MB more or less on at least three build machines
and testing servers makes really a difference on dist-upgrades
twice a year, on normal updates and consumed time at all
