Any chance this will reduce the space needed for major OS updates? Those have always been desperately inefficient.

No. Disk images aren't involved in the OS update process.
They are - in that OS updates are delivered in and extracted from disk images. Not sure how they could be any more involved…
Not this kind of disk image. ASIF is a read-write disk image; an OS update would be distributed in a read-only image (if it is indeed a disk image).
