I think it is because the USPS cannot be relied upon to fulfill their end of the delivery in a timely fashion. A CYA clause for Amazon, if you will. Amazon ships on time and FedEx is reliable enough to get the item to the USPS on time, but the USPS can sometimes move slower than a snail. Personally I wish Amazon would not use this type of shipping, but I guess it works most of the time.
