There is no need to provide reasoning for its inclusion as it is already in the game. But to answer, it's because it allows the unlocking of flying sooner per zone.

- The player unlocks flying upon completion of ARR content. This is removed (gated) in subsequent expansions for reasoning unrelated to the main story scenario. It slows progression of the linear story content to a crawl. This in itself is reason to remove the feature. I am not requesting the removal of content, but the removal of the removal of content.

There is no need to remove aether currents, just add the ARR method to all the expansions as an alternative option.
