A combination would probably be ideal - agree on an approach on-list
then proceed with Wiki editing.

Not quite sure where that's coming from. This Wiki page is specifically
target at people who need to install from USB without a network. As far
as disadvantages of the LiveCD - it's a lot to download if you only want
to do a netinstall, so both options could be mentioned wherever it is
discussed/recommended.

That would be of interest, and as I said earlier, seems a good candidate
for a separate Wiki article.

P.S. Would be nice if you used an email client that handled quoting
properly in replies.
