That's true, but what about the case where people don't have a
dist-git? There are definitely environments where people are using
CVS, SVN, or even nothing at all. I know for at least a few
distributions that are not built using an SCM.
Also, since we can use tools like spectool to retrieve sources/patches
that have URLs, having tags in the spec with checksum information
means that those tools can use that information to check the
sources/patches.
