applying a pattern helps in sparing some brain cycles.
not having to think was the main benefit of the chosen solution over any
other one (to answer the comparative part of the question).

but of course not having to think comes has some limitations, so
patterns need to be re-evaluated ever so often.

or to put otherwise: what is the drawback of my pattern compared so a
simple 'drumkv1-common (= ${binary:Version})'.
