Because in most cases it's quicker.
If I was to describe Blur's first album people would get a much better idea of it by me saying it's shoegaze/dreampop than by me trying to think up and type out a whole bunch of adjectives to describe it.
and even if some people think that doesn't describe it there's still enough elements in that album that it shares from other albums from that genre.
