Okay so it's a feature that has been added to Ubuntu 18.04 which automatically calls apt update after adding any PPA, sometimes it's a time saver as I don't have to run sudo apt update manually after adding a PPA. But sometimes it just pisses me off when I've to add multiple PPA's, and I've to wait for all the list updates after adding every single PPA.
Don't recommend "Can't you add multiple PPA by && ?", cause it's just pain.
