That's wrong. Using one sound server usually just makes more sense, than
using several sound servers that conflict with each other.

For me it's easier to just install one sound server instead of two or
more sound servers. I don't need to comment out something or to add
something to an app. For most use cases it's simpler to use one sound
server.
How many display managers and screen savers do you use in parallel?
Less is more, Linux allows to follow the KISS principle. Two sound
servers and managing that they don't conflict with each other is bad
engineering. Even if somebody should need PA and jackd in parallel, then
it's just a work-around, however, most users likely need only one sound
server and their computer usage would be much easier with having only PA
or only jackd installed instead of both.
