Because otherwise if you have too many small letters in a row it stops looking like a plural and more like a misspelled word. Because capitalization differences you can make more sense of As but not so much as.

As

That looks like an oddly capitalised "as"

That really gives the reason it's acceptable to use apostrophes when pluralising that sort of case
