I don't know the technical reason, but this is one:
You would want some way of confirming creation, either:
DynAPI.document.addChild(myLayer)
or
myLayer.addToParent(DynAPI.document)
Otherwise your layers are created the moment you create them, while now you
can create them before-hand, and only add them to the document when you need
them.
