Re-Potting, necessary?

[notanovice]

First off, I've read The Cannabis Grow bible and several other resources cover to cover, but I never hear people talk about this particular subject. Why is it that nobody just starts from the very beginning with a really large pot? Why not start of with a 5 gallon pot and go from there? It seems to me that this would be most efficient, save the most soil, and you don't have to spend money on 5 different sized pots. Is there a reason why having a seedling in a larger pot would be bad? After all, that is surely the most natural way of growing a plant.

it`s done that way because most have a limited space, and unless you are growing clones or breeding , you dont know if it`s gonna be male or female.
wasted space basically
