To have it before everyone else and be able to dye the normal raid gear. To make it that much easier for weekly reclears as you gear up.

XIV is not like older MMOs where there is a massive gear gap between casually obtained gear and raid gear. We're all reset fairly close to even gearwise with each new expansion and BiS gives a slight boost in the new MSQ content where you don't need to upgrade for quite a while into the expansion. The only long-term use for BiS is Ultimates.
