There are other reasons for this but...
 
I think the primary reason is to server data warehouse functions.  i.e.  if you have an oltp database with a small block size and want that data into a staging area as quickly as possible, you are now able to use transportable tablespaces because the 'same block size' restriction has been removed.

List,

Oracle 9i supported multiple block sizes, I am wondering under what circumstances one would setup a database with multiple block sizes?
