Because you can only have a max of 15 partitions on a disk
without using LVM?

At work we have a system with a gazillion or so different
linux distros and had to set it up to dd copies of the /boot
partition back onto /boot so we can boot the linux that goes
with that /boot. If grub could boot from LVM, I wouldn't need
the separate /boot shared among all the different linuxen.
