But of course! The multisync spec uses %{?dist} already.
It's just that at some point of time you end up with

  devel: 2%{?dist}
  F-8: 2%{?dist}
  F-7: 2%{?dist}
 
and you can patch and bump F-8 to 3%{?dist} without updating "devel".
Your branches get out-of-sync. And next time you bump release in "devel",
the release value may become the same as in older branches, but nothing
guarantees that the spec file becomes the same.
