        Guessing at one reason:

        It feels good to know that you’re not signing up for someone’s instance that they’re just trying out admining for the first time and maybe if they’re too busy to do the proper updates next weekend they’ll just close shop.

        (And by shop I mean fantastic free volunteering effort of course!)
