In a way, yes. Grunt forces local node modules, and doesn't allow some
lookup path for the modules to be located elsewhere (like node does
with its path-upwards search). You can safely delete the node_modules/
folder if you don't plan to use the 'grunt' frontend, to regain space.

As for bandwidth, the modules are only downloaded once (to an SDK
path), and then only copied from there for further skeletons, without
any net interaction ...
