It provides a whole bunch of benefits, including: 1: An additional set of (focused) eyes on the document. 2: It provides people with significant "behind the curtains" exposure - you get to see how the sausage is actually made 3: It provides a further backstop to confirm that the process was correctly followed (there does indeed seem to be consensus, the check and balances were all checked and balanced, etc). 4: It provides you with a taste of chairing, but with less work.
