It may have electrical benefits too - the capacitance of the line will likely be lower, and possibly the drive-strength might be lower. Both of those might figure into the power management of the chip... But overall, yeah, it's not as though the RAM is part of the chip, it's just part of the package. Not a lot to see here.
