It's just easier/simpler to instantly close any misbehaving software in case it was left open in another activity.

There are times when I left it open on one activity, and switch to another.  Instead of just opening it quickly just to kill something then close it, it'd throw me to the activity where I left it behind.

I just prefer how KSysGuard handles it.
