Because having 3 or 4 branches and remebering what is on which is a bit
difficult?

Because I just realized that this part of implementing something fixes a bug
in mainline, but other part of the something I have already done is
hopelessly broken?

And perhaps few other reasons.

And though many times shelf is really what I need, sometimes the changes
include trivial fixes, reindenting, coment pruning and things like that that
I want to commit separately, but don't want to spend too much time on such
trivial things.
