I completely agree - I was never actually thinking about using
ShareLaTeX for collaboration with LyX, only as a means of compiling the

not have to worry about the compilation of the document.
Re Africa (and elsewhere): the problem might actually be the other way
round, that the bandwidth is the problem and not the hdd space.
