The main reason is to be able to stop the CAC when you want to make a channel switch and the CAC is ongoing. It's true that the radio would not pass to the next phase, the behavior is the same as when during the CAC a radar event is detected. In the case of aborting, a later action is expected, for example, switch to the desired new channel.
