Yeah, so? Harddrives are cheap and most ppl have flatrates. But you can have different versions of the same addon (some server do have different versions) without problems or renaming/moving addons. If you don't want to play on a certain server anymore (or that server doesn't exist anymore) you can delete the modfolder for that server instead of guessing which addons are not needed anymore. I play only on coop servers and i do use modfolders, so i know what i am talking about. I know it is a matter of taste too, but i like to know what i have installed where and i don't like that renaming/moving stuff at all. And i ABSOLUTELY want nothing installed into my original folders.

I don't need a hand, i was stating observations. I packed some archives of about 250mb and sometimes i repack rar or ace to zip, and the zip always get as small. Most stuff ends up on my linux ftp server at first anyway, so i can repack rar to zip, just in case, because my (older) version of winace really can't handle newer rar archives, it sometimes shows no files in them or only one and will only unpack this one file in that case. As i said i have no problems with rar, ace or zip. BUT others may have as most people have zip but not all have (or even know of) rar or ace. And the "better" compression is not really worth it, i just packed 313mb of ofp missions with best compression for rar and zip and the sizes were 293mb (rar) and 298mb (zip). Wow, rar is only 98,5% the size of the zip, not even 1,5% smaller than the zip, what an improvement...
