Probably because of MySQL deadlocks in Galera:

—snip—
Galera cluster has known limitations, one of them is that it uses cluster-wide 
optimistic locking. This may cause some transactions to rollback. With an 
increasing number of writeable masters, the transaction rollback rate may 
increase, especially if there is write contention on the same dataset. It is of 
course possible to retry the transaction and perhaps it will COMMIT in the 
retries, but this will add to the transaction latency. However, some designs 
are deadlock prone, e.g sequence tables.
