Chocolatery package structure

[maureto1SICKAG]

Hi there,
I am working on my own Choco repo and came across the following question:
Why are there many packages as normal package and as package.install. Here a dependency in the package refers to the package.install. The actual package only has the XML file and no install of its own.

For example:
There is 7zip and 7zip.install, so 7zip has a dependency on 7zip.install which installs the program.

What is the benefit of this structure?

There was a recent post on Reddit about this that may answer your question. This is also answered in our docs.
