The point is to run TLC drives. SLC drives of that capacity are too expensive and are thus not recommended.
The more bits per cell you store, the more dense and therefore cheaper your flash chips can be for a give capacity. The downside is that it is slower and less reliable since you have to be able to write and read exponentially more voltage states per cell, e.g. 2 states for SLC, 4 states for MLC, 8 states for TLC, etc.
Careful with this- since MLC just means multi, I've seen drives marketed as "3-bit MLC", i.e. TLC
