You're not understanding again.

I'm talking about people who _explicitly_ load the zImage at a different
address to which the decompressed image ends up.  With AUTO_ZRELADDR=y
their setup will break unless they stop that behaviour, which takes
away one of the advantages of using the zImage format.
