Because it looks more professional. You had to go out and buy a pair of pants that fit and you can run in. Wearing a belt suggests you just went around to your local Wal-Mart and picked up a pair of pants. The same as it looks silly as a football and baseball umpire to not buy at hat that fits and use and adjustable hat. It is about perception and when you are the only person doing that, this questions what other things you might have cut corners on. People are looking for "why not" not "why."
