I may be wrong, but I suspect it is yet another case of "disconnection" between what the MS (in this case but I have seen the same phenomenon with other software) developers have (in terms of hardware, connection speed and bandwidth) and what your average Joe has or can afford. Since several years softwares seems to be designed by people that have top of the range resources (which is normal since their hardware and connections are their tools of the trade) BUT that somehow don't have contact with "normal" people, using a few years old PC (or phone) and having slow internet for one reason or the other.
