Why use multiple FF programs within one alliance?

In this thread:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=681353

at least three people have significant numbers of miles on multiple SkyTeam airlines (e.g. CO, DL, NW).

Seems strange. What advantage would there be to splitting one's miles among multiple airlines within an alliance, as opposed to concentrating them on one airline within the alliance?
