I believe that would be an artifact of having to wear safety glasses in the pits (and on the field) at all times. Pit Admin is located in the pits; you can send 4 team members to the field (drive team); if you don't have 4 pairs of safety glasses, the drive team probably doesn't have enough for all of them.

Yes, it should be in the manuals. No, it is not arbitrary.
