It makes sure you can never accidentally load a binary plugin, even if a user
stashed an old copy of Flash in their home directory, since they're only
produced for 32-bit Firefox, so you don't have to worry about the security
holes in them.

Of course, there's always the general benefits, such as those listed on:

but there's not much special to Firefox in that list.
