They didn't offload the bandwidth. They simply provided a front end for the users to optionally use to download those addons more directly.
Secondly, WM TRIED to host the addons themselves, people like you cried out they were violating your rights so they had to provide links for downloads to the sites you deemed worthy for your addons.
So making that argument is kinda hypocritical of you and the others who make it.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
