I like your theory Ryan. Another obvious recent example is 'Inspiration', btw.
I also get a feeling it's just purely meant to disrupt over-regimented 'too perfect' mixing. Maybe it keeps things in the 'for-those-who-know' clique. Maybe. Plus of course, if it causes the dj to cut the other track as a solution, it concentrates attention on the 'inaccurately sequenced' one!
