It prevents the most obvious cheating like savegame editing, save scum item duplication, and similar. If the game has PvP, an item shop or leaderboards while still allowing your game character to be taken online when you feel like it, it makes technical sense.
If you don't want to participate in leaderboards and just play single player and maybe co-op or PvP with trusted friends or on a curated server (like people do in Minecraft, Space Engineers, Terraria, old school shooters...), it's just a degradation.
