The objection I've heard so far is "I'd be rude".
You are the first one to actually explain the reason for that claim. So thanks.
Pages as myspace a.o. have been doing the same, but
I have to very much agree, loading that many large images (at once) is a bad
thing and likely I would have added thumbnails anyway.
Not "likely", because I'd think it's wrong, but "likely", because
time and work is involved.

The strange thing is:
I took a lot of time gathering the links, images, etc...
Now: Instead of going ahead and improving the page themself,
for example by adding thumbnails, some are
simply complaining.
