From what I have heard one of the main reasons is to monitor the other pilot for incapacitation.
It would be bad to be locked out by bullet proof doors when the other pilot got a heart attack
Yeah, a hearth attack is an extreme case, but tiredness would be a pretty likely and frequent cause of incapacitation in my opinion.
