Just speculating, but you might choose a larger front sprocket if you were looking to move the chain to swingarm distance to tweak how much anti-squat you get under power. I've never gotten to that level of chassis tuning myself.

Other reasons might be if you wanted to lower the final drive ratio but a smaller rear would put you out of the chain adjustment range.
