I have had the same thought - the one downside for this usage is the
sync time at umount - for novice users this would appear to be a hang/crash
after the install was almost finished (since it might take minutes to
complete) to which a natural response would be to push the reset button
and try again...   So, I think this would need to be an option to be used
by those who know to expect that delay, and so default off.
