There seems to be some confusion here.  PREMIRRORS isn't a
"poky/yocto" mechanism.  It started in OE, and stills works just fine
there (it's implemented in bitbake).  own-mirrors is simply a
convenience to make premirrors manipulation easier for the user.  If
convenience and usability isn't a priority for poky/yocto, I'd be
curious to hear the reasoning.
