Simple: Because moving it ( physically or digital ) = Cost for the Company. How does that not make sense?

COULD.. this is the point. What people do in this Thread; They assume right away that the current Server/data will be moved. Moving it, costs money and it does not matter if you "just" do it the digital way or actually physically move the server. And assumptions again about the way how they would do it. SE did not say a single word that they would move currently existing servers, that is what i go with until SE says something about it. There is such no way to assume that the Servers/Data will be moved back and forth, without having a reason to do it.

I dont say it is impossible. I allready stated that SE could do it, but why would they?
