In my mind, this is not entirely the case. The other reason to use it
is to avoid actually touching cpurc, so that you don't have to
remember to type -s '/rc/bin/cpurc' when I pull, after backing it up
and merging any changes back in. Since pull is the primary means of
keeping the system up to date, it's a real pain to try to merge all
these changes.
