AUR is not your repository. I have my own overlay where I am the king. I want to be the boss of my own things. Waiting for permission to take over maintenance of an abandoned AUR package was a pain in the ass. I am a king!

Also, AUR is not just treated as another repository on arch linux. Pacman doesn't recognize AUR. On gentoo linux, a third party overlay is treated just like the official gentoo overlay. Gentoo's emerge command recognizes both gentoo official overlay and third party overlays. I want one command to rule all packages for me.

PPAs and unofficial arch linux user repositories can very easily go out of sync with the official repository because they are pre-compiled binary packages. Source packages are compiled on my machine, so I don't have to worry about packages going out of sync due to minor version differences. When packages are out of sync, they break.
