So that you can't be immediately grabbed again. If you get grabbed again it should be your fault, not some inescapable infinite that is a guaranteed stock loss. That's just stupid.
There are infinites/chain grabs in other fighters. ICs are designed with chain grabbing in mind. Flying backwards when you grab is separate from the idea of chain grabbing. Flying backwards when you escape is the reward for mashing out of the grab at low percents to avoid a stock loss. I agree that it is stupid as do many people, but the concept isn't bad nor is it new.
