I'm just assuming, but I would think because doing 3 quarts at a time doesn't lower the fluid level as much and lowers the risk of damaging the transmission from being too low on the fluid level, but I could be wrong, BUT I would rather do smaller amounts rather than too much at a time.
Another reason would be not having to deal with the old fluid jug being completely full and possible spilling some of it.
