It doesn't make a difference for a the end-user, but it makes a difference to contributors who have to learn a set of tools in order to be able to contribute on a set of packages. If the set of tools to learn is smaller, it's easier for the contributor to contribute to more packages and he has to spend less time learning, time that can be better spent on improving the package and on fixing bugs.
