I think the rationale is that 'guest' additions to the network 
especially in public places may legitimately access the network's 
internet connection and any servers on it, but shouldn't be allowed to 
'see' each other for security reasons.

I cant say that exists as a possibility on any wifi routers I ahve or 
access pints, but I have seen it I think on some other peoles kit.

If I wanted that level of access here, I would configure a second LAN 
attached to a different SSID and put it on an entirely different IP network
