Default Ebay Reserve Question

Opinions please...

I asked a seller of an item I'm interested in to tell me what the reserve was. The response: "Thanks for your email. Sorry in fairness to all who plan on bidding we keep reserves private until the end of the sale."

I understand why a seller would set a rerserve, but what is the rationale of keeping buyers in the dark until the reserve is finally met?
