    Separate please.
    
    CPU (try running "make plist" following an update of ports with a large
    PLIST - many of the web applications, icon themes, and even things like
    yt-dlp) is not cheap.
    
    Neither is bandwidth in some cases (remember this is always-update).
    
    I'm ok with adding the flavour.
