I thought it was part of their over-all cover. If they're ideological they'll fight to the death against an assault. They're doing it for something they believe in.
Whereas if they're just thieves they're more likely to surrender, so the cops can more aggressively push them since, idk, they'll surrender?
It's a misdirection thing to convince the cops that they're a different kind of threat than they really are.
