SFO Ops: why use Intl gates for Dom flights when traffic is so low?

My flight SFO to IAD yesterday AM departed from Intl G gate; equipment was the arriving flight from IAD the night before. Why would SFO utilize the international gates for domestic flights these days, when traffic volume is low and there must be loads of open gates in T3? I imagine many less-than-savvy travelers were caught by surprise when they came to T3 for the morning flight.
