It also avoids the need to figure out exactly which Boot Services regions may have become corrupt.
This would be necessary since you can't keep all Boot Services regions reserved because those regions can add up to be many gigabytes in size, even on relatively low-end laptops that don't have huge amounts of RAM to begin with.
Freeing Boot Services regions is pretty important.
