I don't have the requirement either but it would be nice if I did. Why support by using downloadable local free software and not service free software? I could eventually use it locally.

Just as it would be nice to stop using windows after all the software used on top of it is free software and found in gnu/Linux distros. 

Aiming high and stop where you can.
