That doesn't sound right. If Bundle v1.1 is an upgrade of Bundle v1.0 then v1.0 
will be removed after v1.1 is installed. Reference counting should mean the 20 
packages are not removed if Bundle v1.1 lists them (as I noted below).

Installation of 1.1 will work with a minimum download of the 5 changed packages 
if you create a web installer in burn including all 25 packages.
But what will happen with your installed version 1.0 in ARP? The entry will 
stay there. If your 1.0 package gets uninstalled it does not care about the 
dependency entries of your burn package and uninstall the 20 unchanged MSIs.
Your customers then need to repair version 1.1. During repair this 20 packages 
get downloaded.

Regarding the size: One of my customer has web installers for products >2GB for 
annual updates and monthly updates with around 350MB for about 75000 customers 
;)

Understood.  I spent several years of my life that I can't get back working
in a SCIF.

Depending on what your custom environment is like as well... some gov shops
don't give out internet access... so downloading is not an option...

As far as I know, shipping packages in the bundle vs downloading them is not
all-or-nothing. You can ship some packages in the bundle and download others
on demand. In this case, you can ship those 5 packages in the bundle, and
leave the others to be downloaded, which in most cases they won't be.
