It's different in that the submitter has to go to Review Board and create an account, etc. If it's a one-off minor patch, a fair number of people are likely to just say "meh" and drop it. Forcing people to use Review Board means we'll lose some number of contributions. I'd suggest a better way is to heavily encourage Review Board as the "official" submission method, and quietly allow email or attachments to bugs.
