I use Debian testing, and IIRC when I do an aptitude dist-upgrade the 
LibO libraries are downloaded, the old ones removed, and the new one's 
installed.  I think that this is how all updates work, isn't it? If so, 
then I for one don't understand your question or expectation: of course 
you have to download the libraries ... how else would you get them?
If you are actually referring to /installing/ them, then that is a 
different question, in which case your concern is about "Is there no 
other way to upgrade to 3.3.1 other than to [manually install] the whole 
shooting match AGAIN? " .
Is there a specific library that you can manually load from the *.tar 
file from the LibO site while allowing aptitude (or whatever Ubuntu 
uses) to manage your main package installation?
If not, and if the Ubuntu maintainers don't engineer some kind of 
interoperability (which clearly exists if the LibO site version works 
with TB) then the short answer is "yes".
