it ultimately comes down to most devices being ultimately some form of computer running a specific set of software.

the longer it runs the more likely it is some non critical call fails but the device can recover.

so events like moryleaks, stack fails and such while minor on their own if your device is running ,,lets say for a few months they add up and eventually bog down the whole thing.

shutting it down and back on clear all this and lets the system start pristine.
