This may be a dumb question...

Why post faq-diffs to comp.text.tex?

Since the faq is posted anyway, doesn't posting faq-diffs only chew up
additional disk space & bandwidth?  Or is there some advantage to
producing the latest faq by applying the diffs to the previous version
instead of simply saving the latest faq?
