It is also a good idea for computing devices in general since not restarting means effectively restarting and finding out that the restart didn't work properly or that you do not have all the information needed to log back in at the worst possible time, one you didn't choose yourself. And if you do it often enough the number of updates/changes that could be the cause is significantly lower than if you keep things running for a long time before a restart.
