Uploading files to Sharepoint (WSS 3.0) document library using HTTP PUT

Hi I have the following piece of code to upload a file to Sharepoint. It uses HTTP PUT:

public static string UploadFile(string destUrl, string sourcePath)

Is there a paticular reason you can't just use the Sharepoint API (eg. SPFolder.Files.Add) to upload the file? As follows:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms454491.aspx

public void UploadFile(string srcUrl, string destUrl)
{
    if (! File.Exists(srcUrl))
    {
        throw new ArgumentException(String.Format("{0} does not exist", 
            srcUrl), "srcUrl");
    }

    SPWeb site = new SPSite(destUrl).OpenWeb();

    FileStream fStream = File.OpenRead(srcUrl);
    byte[] contents = new byte[fStream.Length];
    fStream.Read(contents, 0, (int)fStream.Length);
    fStream.Close(); 

    EnsureParentFolder(site, destUrl);
    site.Files.Add(destUrl, contents);
}
