Some use cases would include installing packages from a local cache,
downloading them out of band and feeding them to apk when resolving
system problems, pulling a package out of edge/another release and
sticking it into your own repo to make it available to a particular
system (for example, I sometimes pull packages from edge/testing over to
mirror.sr.ht).

I would also argue this from a philosophical question, because the
signature verifies the data is authentic, not where it comes from.
