The main reason behind this change is to have consistent scripts for local testing and remote runners during testing and debugging. However, there are already tools available, such as gitlab-ci-local, that allow you to run jobs locally, partially invalidating this argument. Additionally, working locally may not provide access to all necessary variables.
The "needs" keyword can also be applied to jobs within the same stage, allowing you to create stageless pipelines similar to those in Jenkins. However, it's important to note that in reality, jobs fall into the default stage, which is Test. This limitation is currently being addressed in GitLab, as mentioned in this issue.
