The number of requests/second @infura_io must handle is insane. Every active Metamask user is sending them ~25 eth_getBlockByNumber calls a minute. If 50% of Metamask users have the extension enabled thats 200k requests/second right there.
Nice to do it this way because people stink at deadlines, aren't actually checking your updates, and might forget to update some of their code paths.
