Even if you know what you are doing it can be helpful to have visual
guides. I am sure you could do (or maybe you do) programming in a
plain text editor. Still many people prefer editors that support
highlighting. Why again does the thicker line that separates head and
body of the table not help to get a better overview of the table?
Call me an heretic, but sometimes I use several \midrule in a table. It
did not occur to me that it was forbidden outside of header/footer
separation. And I do not use \cmidrules in normal operation.
The head/foot separation was only an example. There may be other ones.
The main point was: the greater thickness is there indicate a special
separation.
