You'll do a favor for everyone:
Yourself: your bitcoins will be safer using an offline wallet than anywhere else.
The network: you'll be running a full node and contribute to the bitcoin network's strength.
The Electrum wallet project: the new version is so stable, they'll give away 0.01 BTC if you find and report a bug.
