Not "wasting disc space" . . .

Not really. By increasing the "work-in-progress" resolution in BOTH axes, it makes for much better data interpolating possibilities, DSP operations and mixing etc. And with much smaller rounding errors.

An analogy: It gives the "artist" a bigger "canvas" on which to paint his picture with greater detail. And when this picture is subsequently scaled back down to, say, to fit onto an A4-sized magazine front cover, it looks so much more detailed compared with if he had originally painted it on an A4 sized canvas.
