I don't understand why you say that. Perhaps because, in Bazaar, a
repository is generally only for one project; there's no point having a
repository containing branches that aren't going to share revision data.

To my understanding, the common Bazaar wisdom is that branches which
will share revision data are best considered as a project, and should
have their own repository distinct from other repositories.
