Why do you need a processor that performs billions of operations per second when your RAM can't move that fast anyhow?  Just because.  Why do they make Everclear 190 proof?  Just because.

Wayne Gretzky and Karl Malone were drinking at some high-class place one day.  Wayne goes up to the bartender and says, "I'll have a glass of < Louis XIII >."  The bartender pours Wayne a glass and he starts drinking it.  Karl Malone walks up and says, "Bartender, I'll have a Louis XIII and coke."  Wayne looks on incredulously and says, "Karl, why are you mixing a five cent soda with a five hundred dollar glass of liquor?"  Karl Malone looks Wayne Gretzky dead in the eye, opens the coke, and starts pouring, "Because I can, Wayne.  Because I can."
