I'm not saying swap is silly.
I'm saying that its silly not to allow the installation to continue
without a swap _partition_.
I can setup a swap _file_ myself after installation instead (or the
installer could be nice enough to help with it). Or in theory I could
even have so much memory that swap space should not be needed at all.
