I once heard “to keep your tailgate from being stolen” but that seems like it’d be a rare case.

    If I’m shopping, I want my tailgate free for loading or unloading. Similar for road trips or any time I’m carrying anything

      See this is absolutely the key point here I think. Because here in Australia where it’s similarly rare, the only time I generally see people reverse in, is when there is a walkway of some sort to reverse up too, not another car.
