I am well aware that that is how a lease is calculated but the difference is negligible and if you've ever negotiated a lease you know that the residual is also negotiable so yea I guess I care to some degree but not enough to make me get a package on the car that doesn't do anything for me. Some people love them and that is fine, I'm just saying if given the option I would choose not to have one. Although the extra room it gives in the cabin is nice I can't say it will help me out since I am vertically challenged...o well

The residual value of the car at lease end is used in determining what portion of the car's value you'll be leasing. That determines your lease payment. Lower residual value = higher payments.
