I think the thinking is that the loss of possesion is enough of a penalty. Before hand you would penalize the offense more when they were in control of the ball yet the player did not have the ball then you would if a player in control of the ball committed the foul. Plus I personally like the rule because it adds consistency...for the most part...between all the major codes in America.
