Kindle allows upgrades but not downgrades. Staying on the lowest possible firmware version potentially gives you more options.

If a JB is discovered for fw5.10.9, for example, then you can always upgrade from 5.10.1.3 to 5.10.9 in order to JB. If a JB is discovered for 5.10.1.3, though, and you already upgraded to 5.10.9, then there's no going back.
