I am certain this is because they often want to edit for house style etc. I've seen this mentioned on contracts for arranging etc, and it's quite understandable to me. If you were copywriting for a newspaper, you wouldn't send them a PDF and expect them to retype/scan it in.
On the other hand, it's virtually mandated for me at work that we don't send technical documents out in anything other than PDF. There's many good reasons for this, including not leaving tracked changes in there, but most importantly it's very portable.
