It's one of the aspects which made me said "a combined Everything+updates
shifts costs from client to server".
except they wouldn't be merged on the server side -it would just be
additive.
We wouldn't be talking about removing the original GA set - just adding
updated pkgs into the path. So you'd still have the number of pkgs -just
all in one repo, that you have to download all of the metadata for all of
the more often, despite that 15K of them don't CHANGE.
this is why it is less good for our users.
