Wow, I admire your discipline, Zig! Now more than ever, I've been trying to delete the dud ones up front but my photo collection seems to be growing each time I look at it.
One of the reasons why I care so much about where my photos are located is precisely what everyone else has mentioned - i.e. I prefer to keep a working set of my more recent images on hand, and maybe archive off the older ones to another disk. Knowing where they physically live as well allows me to effectively manage my storage media as well.
Up until just recently, I used to store my entire library on my internal 320GB hard disk, but I ran out of space and had to relocate it to an external drive. Now I'm afraid it'll keep growing uncontrollably!!
