At that point it’s a single point of failure, hack that central repo and infect everything. Plus Linux is not centralized… That’s kinda the point, suse, Debian, arch, red hat all have their own repos…
Yes, but you as a user are in control of when/how you update, you can first update some test server and only then propagate it to other.
But still better have single (hopefully secure) risk point/target that you need to pay attention than have multiple god know when/how updating that you dont even dont know about.
