Well, because it wouldn't be only helping out small developers.  It
would be helping to ensure return eyeballs to the the app store.  The
pattern of:

bored, free time
start the market
poke around and see what's new

is executed much less often if "what's new" never changes.  (Well, at
least by me.)   If you demonstrate static content (or content that
only
changes once a week), I don't have a big driver to return until the
expected change might be there.  (How often do you check a web comic,
how often do you check the daily deals of a store you like, etc.?)

Maybe it's an attempt to lighten the load on the market servers.
