Yes, that is the point. I update the older branches just rarely, 
typically just due to security bug. In such case, it is typically easier 
just cherry-pick the single change.

On the other hand, conditions makes the file unreadable, fragile and it 
makes harder to fix the .spec file by migration scripts, if the 
guidelines are updated.

However some may disagree with me ;)
