Not to mention pulling a 2.5GB image is kind of hard on network. I don't get it as that costs them more money.
We're mirroring the images internally, not just because their mirrors suck and would almost double the total install time when using them, but also because they only host the images for the very latest patch version - and they've multiple times made major version changes which have broken the installer between patches in 22.04 alone.
