I suspect the main reason would be to substitute larger chips for smaller
ones if you have the larger chips on hand and need to get a device that
takes the smaller chips working.  (Personally, I have a small stash of 16K,
64K, and 256K chips that were salvaged from various devices...haven't had to
use any, though, as I've never had RAM go bad.)
