It would make possible for ISVs to create packages in a non-native
packaging format, so they don't have to care about the format each
distro uses, or about understanding each distro dependency checks, or
generally speaking wasting time and money on integration and QA.

Of course that's supposing you can actually do good packaging in
non-native formats and the distros won't be left to collect the pieces
afterwards.
