You would do that for exactly the same reasons that trucks do it, to save on brake wear,...
Trucks do have brakes right?
Just thinking that as long as there is no harm done, THEN it makes sense to use compression and save the brakes.
Perhaps the fact that a turbo engine is built tougher would allow for that.
Just thinking..., and asking! :-)
