Sprite sheets vs Zip files

Something like an option on a sheet's page to submit a ZIP with the frames in an easily usable format. Sheets should be prioritized, but if there are people willing to align and organise them into a ZIP (or if the sprites are just extracted like that), then it cuts out some work for anybody who ends up wanting to use them. For example, my Nuclear Throne submissions are sheets, but when extracted the frames are all individual images, in order, organised in folders by animation. It'd super easy for me to just upload a ZIP of that for anybody who wants to use them, but still have the sheet for those who just want to view.
This would also allow content creators who did have to extract sheets into a usable format to save the work for any future people in their position.

That is what I was thinking, I was half tempted to go and add a zip option on some random sprite sheets because I thought it would 
be more helpful for people. But I didn't do that because I was sure it would be declined by site staff.

Surely there is a use for both formats? I would be willing to build zips in my spare time for different sprite sheets.
