Previous versions allowed to install SSC without reporting options . SEP decided to compell you to install everything so I found that a separate small server could be the best options for medium large business. For very small envs(5-15 users) the unmanaged solution is better.

What negative impact did you see regarding #2? Was that pre or post MR2 that you surmised this? I agree pre-MR2. But I think those issues have been resolved post. SEP and its predecessors are hoggish, so you should definitely have an adequate server no matter what.
