Without having to build and deal with them locally. Automation of build environments. Less or selected bandwidth use. Another case is openoffice. 2.4.x is outdated and good-day does not carry the deps for any version, thus it needs manual intervention and pointing to freebsd.org/mirror to install the deps.
