Yes, it is very important as all those clients that can't get data from the API will fallback to OSMXAPI, and that is not optimized for region-based map calls. In addition it runs on the same box as the t at h server, so now the server has to pull out all the data itself, hand it to the clients and get the tiles back. Much less of a distributed effort...

THe result will just be that OSMXAPI is overloaded quite soon.
