Because the data for that is *always* not at rest the moment you unlock the device once after boot. On a user profile you can put data at rest by pressing the end session button, you cannot do that for the Owner because the owner manages crucial OS functions. It is how Android works. To put Owner at rest you need to power off the device or restart it instead.
It's a more extreme move but it adds resistance to attacks especially in forensic situations.
