Better question: why does any download site offer checksums?

My answer: I have no idea, which is why I ask these questions ever time the 
question comes up.  I have yet to get a satisfactory answer.

I *can* see the point for large ISOs and such, simply because the download time 
required means that a quick way of verifying that you’ve got a clean download 
is useful.  That same doesn’t apply to Fossil.
