Yes.

No. SourceFile is usually required, so the Binder can give Burn details 
about the file. NetFxExtension uses RemotePayload instead so those files 
aren't required when you build.

They're different, not better or worse. The web installer is a small 
stub that downloads its own files; the redist is self-contained so Burn 
manages the whole download.
