If they are exchanged via Freetalk it will bloat the messages. Further, I was told to implement CHK messages in Freetalk because messages could not fit into SSK. So now Freetalk uses SSK message lists to publish CHK URI of the messages... If the CHK URI become insanely long then the message lists will be bloated very much and maybe only five messages or so will fit into a SSK message list.
