They have the additional benefit of making the leveling-up dungeons count as max-level dungeons. I.E. there are 15 5-man dungeons of roughly comparable rewards/difficulty for level 70s, but without Heroic mode, Ramparts et all would be a little too wussy for people to run regularly, similar to how BRD/Maraudon were.
