I see two main reasons:

- Freedom to move on to the next project. I bet most entrepreneurs are more interested in creating than maintaining.

- Money/security. The trend toward payouts when raising major rounds is helping with this issue, but still the resources available change significantly with a big payout, plus you can diversify your income stream to hedge against contingencies.
