   That's easy :-)   
   Because it implies a potential to become 10 times smarter than we are now,   
   without having to wait a few million years for evolution to catch up. Also,   
   for some, a 90% dormant brain provides a  convenient and easily   
   understandable place to assign paranormal abilities to.
