Also, IIRC, all the photos are resized smaller and recompressed, while the full-res versions are still accessible through the Facebook website. This also makes it harder to quit if 1) you don't have the original photos and 2) don't want to live with the unnecessary sacrifice of quality.

Facebook really ought to include the best versions it has of the data you've uploaded, even if it makes the archive size enormous. The option to shrink things should be a non-default option only, since the download might be a prelude to an irreversible account deletion.
