Two thoughts. A permanent tank installed in a trailer is vented to the outdoors through a roof vent, which provides an easy route for rising odors and displaced air to escape. Unless a separate vent is added to a blue portable tank used for black water waste, the only escape route for odors or air displaced when dumping in another load would be into the trailer through the toilet dump valve.
Emptying a permanent trailer tank or a porta-pottie can be done at one's convenience after breaking camp. But using a portable blue tank for black waste would tend to require one to empty it while breaking camp.
