It makes perfect sense to have a backup MX of a lower priority.  Most
of your users may be located in New York, so you'd want most of your
mail routed in that way, and would only want the mail server at your
remote site in London to accept mail if NYC was down for some reason.
Your London server might be sitting on a very slow connection to the
outside world, or maybe it's a fairly old machine and not up to
handling high loads, meaning you'd probably only want it to be used in
an emergency.
