No, for many people it is not "an entirely different thing". For many people, using free software and sending patches upstream is the same thing. Dropping that boundary is basically the main point of free software.

Even if they don't happen to actually send patches upstream (because the software is good enough for them), they want to make sure anyone else can easily for obvious "good maintenance" reasons.
