Wanna talk about bandwidth?  Talk about forum usage.  You're sucking down a not-tiny fraction of the DF download size every time you load a page, and these aren't mirrored.  I think a substantial number of DF players read the forums.

Agreed though:  If the .exe file is provided in ANY compressed format, like .zip or .7z or whatever, then UPX won't save bandwidth costs.  Even if it weren't, it's pretty common for webservers to automagically negotiate compression with downloading clients.  I don't see a good reason, and it can make debugging more complicated later.
