It's just a matter of your personal privacy needs. There might be
unique serial numbers associated with your physical hardware. For
most people, this isn't a problem, but if you're a human rights
activist living under a totalitarian regime who communicates online
under a pseudonym, for example, then it's conceivable that the regime
might use this information to link the psuedonym under which you
submit the .cpio.gz file to the identity under which you purchased the
hardware.
