The rationale appears to be that they don't have the moderation tools necessary to deal with an unvetted userbase. Lemmy.world doesn't require any prior user verification, so anyone can join (just like reddit). Beehaw claims that they were receiving a large amount of trolls or other negative traffic from lemmy.world and shitjustworks, so they have temporarily defederated these instances.
This may change if better modding tools come around.
