"Requirement"? No, you're right, it's not.
But small switched networks probably work a *little* more efficiently
when everything possible is on one [logical] switch. Saves you an
extra hop for some connections, and if you move a fair amount of
traffic on your LAN, that can be worth making more efficient.
