For stable branches it prevents us from just backporting master changes
using straight cherry-picks.

For example you want to tweak the stable release notes for every CVE you
end up fixing post-release in the stable branch. You have a master fix
that happens to update the master release notes. Cherry-picking that
will not cover your stable release notes, so you'll have to alter the
fix to drop the master release note change and add a stable release note
change.

Doesn't mean it's not an option, but it adds pain compared to the
current situation.
