    The difference with the distro package is that you are already using the distro anyway. If you cannot trust the distro package then the whole distro itself is untrusted. Or depending on the repo provided, maybe the whole repo not the whole distro.

      There is a difference between the packages shipped by default, and any random package in the repo.

      In this case, Ubuntus universe repo will have less supported packages.
