Better to push the inconvenience of the cloud onto users and damn be to competitive considerations.

So when the time comes, if A time comes, when roll out is threatened by competition from 'other then cable' highspeed networks; and IF speed becomes an issue, marketing plays the above tune loud and clear. LOUD AND CLEAR.

It ain't me babe
No, no, no
it ain't me babe
it's the cloud that's slow'in ya down...

Loudly and clearly articulating an issue, elucidating a potential confusion, something we all know they have demonstrated such proficiency for already. <g>
