There is no reason.

However, there is an issue with all the jive based clients where a timer
variable wraps back to zero every 24 days +20:31 which causes
squeezeplay to stop updating the watchdog shared memory semaphore which
causes the watchdog to reboot the device.  Here's the 'thread where this
is discussed'
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?111650-Spontaneous-turning-on).
Starrting around post #26.

My understanding is that some prefer this not happen in the middle of
listening and want to reboot when the device when it's not likely to be
in use.
