To keep each models file small enough that you can find the model you were looking for quickly, and avoiding a >3k line models.py. One of my apps has >50 models, having all of them in one file would result in too much code in one file for my liking. It splits up the code into nice chunks, making it easier to review, refactor, modify and document. At least that is the idea.
