Honestly the only reason is that I've heard some fairly direct feedback that port 5000 is that MS uPnP port and hence blocked by many corporate entities, so it's just a matter of a PITA and a slight bump in setup for those groups. Thought to honestly register another port with IANA like 35357 and put it in place - wanted to see if anyone screamed first.
