Why wouldn't I byte-compile all the packages I install? Is there some consequence of byte-compile making it a decision to think about?

One negative is that you can't debug byte compiled code. On the flip side, once the code is production ready, in theory you wouldn't need that (and you could reinstall it w/o byte compilation if you needed to)
