Though it will need more space, the increase won't be too much as wrapper and FDT should be very small. The benefit is that kernel can be extract directly to it's destination(address 0), rather than extract to another place and then move it there. A classical time/space tradeoff.
You probably cannot expect a perfect solution when retrofitting new
features into an old system (this we should keep in mind: we're
talking about old U-Boot versions only, not about current versions
which will support DT).
BTW: Another option is using U-Boot's multifile image format...

That said, there may be good reasons for what you did beyond obsequi-
ous sycophantic parody. Perhaps you might be so kind as to elucidate.
