I don't think I'll ever see it that way. I don't feel it is more convenient to add a system to a group where it isn't needed, seems more inconvenient than anything else. I also don't agree with the minor reduction quote. You've, at best, doubled your security risk, and that's for one remote

Yes, it’s a practical reason, accepting the imo added minor risk. After all, the usual reason for an infection is not having proper access with service or user accounts, much less with a computer account. Pretty much of a stretch believing that a virus might actually deploy XP to systems using

What is leading you to that conclusion? It's not downloading the entire 4GB package. It is checking every file though to see what changed which in the case of packages with a large number of files can still take a while. This process was greatly improved in R2 but pre-R2 is rather inefficient
