Answering my own question if another SO user has the same question in the future.
After some experimentation, I found that the drawback in building directly from the stream was that it ignored the Build Only If There Are Changes property on the Jazz Source Control tab. As a result, assembly from the stream can only be performed at predetermined intervals β it is not possible to configure the assembly only when new changes have been submitted to the stream.
Assembly requires a dedicated workspace to accept new changes from the stream and use them to run an assembly request.
