No, that only happens when we do a full build =3D=3D build all ports. We
usually only do incremental builds =3D=3D build ports with PKGVERSION
bigger that their existing package.

Yes.

Hard to know what "vast majority" is exactly :)

(The current rule is to bump when the plist would change if the port is
built with defaults)
