I would think it is because of how "modules" can effectively be "bolted" on top of existing things quite easily.
Consider putting a new "module" on a bicycle. If you were doing it statically, it would have to have the screws in the proper place to be able to attach as it needs. Dynamically, however, you just use a zip tie to hold your piece onto the bike.
To be sure, if you buy a nice bike, many of the common attachments have "static" points where things can be added. If you want to place a holder for a phone, however, you are much more likely to do something that is much more adaptable at fitting things on.

becomes much more easy to bolt on funct
