As we've experienced in the past, hosts files this large come with many issues. The user experience is not tolerable on some mobile devices, and some Windows installations.
How the heck does anyone curate a quarter-million line hosts file? I think I know: they mostly just cumulate, and grow larger. Someone generates a thousand-line list of garbage, submits it, and the aggregate is thousand lines longer.
I'm not going there.
I'm already uneasy because we're over 50k Hosts.
