I agree.

Yes. I'm pretty sure that:
1. copying the ISO from the USB stick on the HD,
installing WinCDEmu and mounting the ISO
is faster than:
2. (a) either copying the unzipped tlnet folder,
(b) or copying the zipped tlnet folder and then unzipping it.
Afterwards, the situations are the similar: you install TL either (1.)
from a (virtual HD) drive or (2.) from the folder in the drive were you
copied the (un)zipped tlnet folder.
