Exactly; it would force the server to behave like with "--checksum" even
if the server has disabled it.

Except that it needs fewer processor cycles. But I see your point
about server IO bottlenecks.

Why does it need fewer processor cycles?

Have you ever seen a pure file server where processor usage is the limiting
factor?

Yes; just think about Linux NFS...

Or an FTP daemon which allows ASCII mode downloads or "get directory.tar.gz" tar-and-gz-on-the-fly...
Or just rsync with --checksum.

But I second your first question.
