Because that is what you would want to do. For example if you have a generic expression with an inverse trig function, then it makes sense to do integration by part, and after that you might apply some nice and compact expression obtained by a rule on sqrt. Or maybe you should do a partial fraction decomposition somewhere. My main concern with what I looked at is that some rules should be grouped in one algorithm. There are too many rules in rubi...
