I guess you can say "this is one of the reasons" but the overwhelming motivator is turbulence and passenger control. I'd suggest the odds of getting hurt by exploding material are way more likely and dangerous than getting sucked out of a completely shattered window, regardless if you're wearing your seat belt. Getting hurt because the plane makes a sudden drop on the other hand can virtually be eliminated by wearing your belt.
