I would guess it’s to prevent messages from being missed or lost by a receiver out of range or switched off. I haven’t thought deeply about it but I don’t see much reason to be sending transactions of value over a system like this; if the internet is down the state of life is likely nothing like what we have now and for OPSEC I don’t think even transmitting a high power radio signal is a good idea as it makes your location known to any party with the right equipment.
