They'll notice it when they're paying charges to download it over a phone line
in Europe or many other areas of the world.
That is important for people who want to download the system. But
most users in Europe don't do that. The complete GNU/Linux system is
much larger than Emacs, and yet these users manage to have it running.
They must have managed to do this without downloading the system.
If they can get all the rest of Debian without downloading it,
they should be able to get Emacs without downloading it.
