Agreed. That is one disadvantage. But I had more problems without install=>1 such as this:
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=66549 It seems like a Module::Build issue, but not confirmed. I can still test declaration of dependencies by temporarily hiding the smoker's local::lib on a module-by-module basis, if needed. It's not a perfect setup (I can't make it work with perlbrew), but it's smoother so far.
