Plus, developers can create their own repositories that can then be used on any distro.

Developers are exceptionally bad at packaging software though.

Still better than developers providing .tar.gz files or hosting an apt repo.

Depends, at least with the APT repo there is a chance they used lintian to avoid the worst mistakes.

So having 1 packaging format that works across distros is good.
