Why move the Rescue Partition?

One can use his Linux distros boot CD... to boot into rescue mode and shift the rescue partition from the end of the HDD to somewhere in between leaving required space for Windows.

It appears that there's almost no space after the Rescue Partition anyhow, so this begs the question: Why move the Rescue Partition?


I let the RR stay at original place, Shrinked first partion and added needed partions. The partions will not be in order in the partion table.

I don't think that they need to be in order as the partion table is a pointer to were to find the partion.
