I think what you mention here was the fact that repacking could cause corruptions on Windows in some cases.

My feeling is that, for good or worse, they are definitely people wanting to have QGIS and "put here the name of your favorite proprietary GIS software" running at the same time, and possibly on the same datasets. This is apparently important in migration scenarios where people aren't ready yet to jump completely to QGIS. That said, this is also tricky to do in a reliable way.
