* you push a revision which introduces a bug
* you push a release which introduces involuntary API breakage
* the new release has a glaring security issue
* release X relies on a third party which has changed (think: some web service) and therefore doesn't work anymore
Sure, you can push a newer release but you don't want _anyone_ to be using the old one.
I'm not saying yanking is good, but maybe a notification system "this package should not be used, upgrade to XXX" would be useful.
