Well, they are closer than cresc and rit for example. But in scores I am
used to, marks like 'Allegro' are valid for a whole piece or at least
large parts of it. Therefore it makes sense to print it bold like \mark.
'rit' usually only for a short period of time.

A similar thing (not fully equivalent) is this: bar numbers and
rehearsal marks. Both can be used to identify a point in time, the
latter are for larger chunks, the former more fine grained.

Cheers,
Joram
