Because it’s an R data package, i.e. it’s a large download taking up
space on hydra; it’s the same for all architechtures and there’s no real
advantage in providing a binary substitute.

We’ve done the same for the genome data packages.  It was more clear cut
then, because the download was about ten times bigger.

Still, I didn’t want to waste space on hydra with a substitute for
something that’s mostly a simple download.

I was a little short with words, what I meant to write was "we add a
comment when we have #:tests? #f, should we add a comment here too?"

Makes sense.  Maybe just mention it in a comment above.

Thanks,
