Because, unlike PortableApps, they do keep all previous versions available.
This can be quite useful to find a regression.

Actually, they are: they even supply apps to help with the process see

Now that I also have the elusive version 3.4.6 do you think you can
convince
them to create a portable version of 3.6.6? Actually the 3.6 branch isn't

So latest PortableApps.com build of LibreOffice (4.0.3.3 -
0eaa50a932c8f2199a615e1eb30f7ac74279539) is ~330 MB for an English install,
but that can be cut to ~221MB

working version, the alternatives are: a Portable version or a parallel
installation.
The main advantage of the Portable version is that it i
