Because your customer has a policy where they use only one or two types of
databases.  And because MySQL (the last time I checked) doesn't support
transactions.  
On the client side, it is a good policy to write generic code which can be
used by pretty much any server.  DB specific stuff is normally only required
in a batch, where speed is an issue, because most DB specific stuff is
performance related.
