Because backports requires to get your package in the archive first then
to get it backported, it's not easier than getting it in the archive,
it's harder, you first need to find you way to the archive, then to get
it backported. It also doesn't solve the issue of non maintained cruft
which get added to universe...

You also might want to track different series or versions in the current
unstable Ubuntu distro and the stable one.
