I think you are talking about this[1], indeed you are right.

However, task dependencies allows sequential tasks execution, but that's not very handy as you may want a same task to be executed in two different sequences.

Let's see a simple example on which I honestly struggle to reproduce with Gulp:

  [Lint, Test] -> Concatenation -> Minification

  Watch -> [Lint, Test] -> LiveReload
How would you do such a setup without having a redundancy in your tasks declaration?
