Less overhead if the response has no entity or a small one. In my experience, 200, 203 and 206 are the only ones that have large enough response-bodies to bother. And since there's no spec for a WSGI app to tell a WSGI server to chunk (because chunking support isn't mandatory), it seemed best for a generic server.
