It's not just because of archive cycling.  In my experience it's pretty
common to have the same category--branch--version shared among different
archives.  Some common examples include multiple people cooperating on
development, and single people using multiple archives to do work at
multiple locations (e.g. for working sometimes on a laptop, or in my case,
at home).

Arch's mechanisms seem to encourage this practice (and certainly no
complaint from me -- it works well).
