The only reason, seems to me, is that on 240 V, you will draw half the
current, and you will experience less voltage droop and I2R power loss.
This may give you a little extra power on peaks and a little less
distortion. Maybe less dimming of lights on some circuits in your
house, too!
Let's see what others have to say.
