It places your station in the middle of the other operators passband,
and has the best chance for them to hear you. I have noticed this in
contests. Some folks, especially with strong adjacent signals
(meaning they are probably running a filter) will hear you better and
respond quicker if you hit the middle of their passband. It helps
with pile ups, DXepeditions, and especially if you are running QRP.

When working weak signals in QRN or QRM, getting an exact zero beat is
crucial if you want to have the best copy.
Why? (seriously)
