> Why create a package if there are working binary?

1. **compatibility**: void has musl, which almost no upstream creates binaries for, and sometimes upstream-created binaries will link to different versions of libraries than void has (or statically link to them, which is largely a waste of space)
2. **hardening and optimisation**: void enables a set of compiler flags that ensure packages have certain optimisations, hardening measures, and compatibility with all possible targets
3. **ease of use for users**: having a package in the repos means users don't have to manually deal with updates aside from `xbps-install -Su`
4. **trust**: users don't have to decide whether they trust the binaries from some random dev's download page if they choose to trust the maintainers of their distro
