Because

1) it's nice to have the same waiter and assistant waiter every night who know your likes and dislikes and will have your favorite beverage ready for you, or will know what "that orangey thing we had two nights ago that I liked so much" is

2) it's fun to eat with the same people (ok, not always) and really get to know your fellow passengers, instead of meeting new folks every night and not getting to know anyone

3) it's no fun to have to wait for a table with Select Seating when everyone shows up at 7PM and they tell you "30 minutes or so" when there's a show you want to see at 9PM.
