Because it was specifically imposed to assert publisher control over Amazon pricing, though it doubtless applies elsewhere.

These particular cases came about because Amazon discounted the hardcover to a point below the one they were required to charge for the ebook. I doubt it will happen elsewhere, and I'd be a bit surprised if it happened again at Amazon. (The fact that it happened at all sounds like an "Oops!" moment to me.)
