Yes, because you are supposed to rebuild INDEX after every cvsup of ports-all. If you pick and choose the port collection, you will probably break "make index" and then the upate tools won't work as you would expect. Since you are going to rebuild INDEX or INDEX-5 after each cvsup, refusing it prevents cvsup from redownloading it. It takes several minutes to download even across a 100Mbps networkd. If you use portupgrade, you also have to run "portsdb -u" after you create and updated INDEX.
