boot floppy documentation question

The docs say:

# cd /usr/share/grub/i386-pc
# dd if=stage1 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
# dd if=stage2 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 seek=1
153+1 records in
153+1 records out
#


Considering the fact that 'stage1' is 512 bytes anyway, wouldn't it be simpler 
to specify:  cat stage1 stage2 > /dev/fd0  ?
