Tutorials, printed manuals, etc.

In that case, copying and pasting is rather difficult, don't you think?

And also, fp:spot/chromium doesn't preclude copying and pasting that into
the terminal.

Then there are cases when people are working in the terminal with no GUI
available. Copying and pasting is almost impossible in that case.

It is easier for humans to remember "fp:spot/chromium" than a long string
that is the repo URL.
