There is no conflict with what you say and the possibility to save on multiple repositories. There is still the possibility to save into one repository like before. You can use it for your own tests and then, when you are satisfied, you can publish it to all places at the same time, without having different versions for the same package. With the two-buttons version it is very simple and not constraining to use.
