I'd guess that this is to ensure one abusive user doesn't get every other user blocked from a large service (say, Google) for botting over the VPN and constantly rotating IPs.
It's a practical measure, but definitely has a privacy cost though.

Though I grant you paid users are probably slightly more circumspect than users of Tor, etc. It seems more likely this is just about load-balancing use against their available nodes.
