Because the UPP way of compiling packages is a bit too modular for that.
Whenever you include some upp package into project, it adopts some flags from your main package, i.e. the "Core" package can be compiled in 3 slightly different ways for 3 examples you will open (just think no-GUI, GUI and GUI + multithreading).
So in the end you would have to extract those flags/libs/includes per project + consider DEBUG/RELEASE variations.
Also you lose benefits of BLITZ and unless you know what you are doing, also parallel compiling on multiple cores.
If you just want to use other IDE, and you have working upp theide binary, you should consider using theide command line as building tool, and let it to call gcc and stuff, it's probably the easiest way (next to simply using theide).
