How do you think torrents work? They basically just download a file, but from multiple people instead of a single server. It needs access to the file system so it can save the files.
Edit: my bad, misunderstood. I thought the comment above was asking why it needed file access in general, not all file access.
It needs access to the file system. But why would it need access to the whole thing? Just download to its own storage, no? Then use something else to copy elsewhere.
Unless this is to support saving to any folder, or built in smb support or something.

Thanks for clarifying, I thought the comment above was asking why it needed file access in the first place, not all file access.
