It's simply that you can eliminate the ubuntugis dependency as a later 
release of Ubuntu does not require it. Running Qgis in a Vm is also a 
viable option if you can't change the OS on your computer. I run Qgis 
now in VMs because I can doe 100% of the things that I could do natively 
and I have drawn hundreds of kilometres of production maps with the 
development masters running in Virtualbox desktop VMs.
