My description above about the behaviour when you choose an existing image as a cover would be one reason. To be able to resize or otherwise fiddle with and reuse the image elsewhere is another. For that, it is probably better to export, make the changes elsewhere and import again. I don't remember exactly what I was doing at the time when I discovered this, but, I remember feeling that not being able to duplicate a file was missing function.
