Essentially, the MRP plan considers supply & demand in one Inventory Org. If you have multiple Orgs it will consider the demands from and supplies to the other orgs but you would have to run the plan at least twice to get all of the interactions between Org.
DRP plan considers all of the links in the distribution chain within one plan so only one planning run is required to get all of the interactions included in the planning run.
Company may want to treat each plan independently or may want to plan combinations of orgs together, or some mixture of these.
Mixing MRP & DRP plans allows this to happen.
