Doing it that way saved a few bytes.

Code was something like this:

FFE3    .OSASCI CMP #&0D
FFE5            BNE OSWRCH
FFE7    .OSNEWL LDA #&0A
FFE9            JSR OSWRCH
FFEC            LDA #&0D
FFEE    .OSWRCH ...

This means that the contents of the accumulator would always be
preserved by a call to OSASCI.
