Then you have multiple versions of every dependency for every application you use. Good luck fixing security bugs in all of those.
Also, you have to do that for python apps, for node apps, for go apps, for rust apps, etc.
As an user, I just want to run "apt install application" and have it work with dependencies kept up to date by the OS package manager and not have to micromanage the dependencies for all applications I use.
