So you are talking about 1.5 MBytes less bandwidth,

Many freebsd users (me for one) are still living on a modem,
where even one bump of 1.5 meg is a significant issue...
Remember that the issue we're talking about is security
updates, not full system upgrades. "Everyone" would want
the security updates, even if they're on a slow link.
