Because you could record and share something state or corporations could want to keep in secret. You could record conversation with some bureaucrat or corporation manager and make it public without them know about it. It is a threat for them.
Interesting that most allowed recorders beeped during record to notify another party that you are recording conversation. Apps that do that silently did not exist in application store for a long.
Same thing with "photoshoot" sound and sometimes bright red light they force when you use your smartphone as camera to shoot a photo or record a video. To prevent you from making unnoticeable shots and videos.

Or you could y'know just use a second phone and put it on speaker. Crowder literally used a talkboy as a comedic prop for the current situation.
