Why MUST the 7.2v battery be attached to operate servos on the RC?

I've searched the threads and have found information on the 7.2v battery requirement but noone has explained WHY the battery must be connected. I understand the reason for it's existance (no loss of program or reset on battery voltage drops due to current demands) but not why if there is no current demand the system cannot be run on the main battery alone. Any ideas??
