Comment (by garrett-eclipse):

 Thanks @Otto42 I learned something new today.

 Does the repo allow for child themes to hold the same name as any parent?
 If they're not ensured to be unique then this check makes sense to keep
 the two types separate. If they are ensured to be unique then I guess the
 check is more to help custom themes and would only help if the custom
 theme is not the same type as the WP.org same-named theme.
