[IPP] Getting Job info, and whether to use a Job URI or Printer URI + Job ID?

Hi there,

When interacting with a Job object, like for instance in a Get-Job-Attributes operation, RFC 8011 section 4.3 says:
4.3.  Job Operations
   All Job operations are directed at Jobs.  A Client MUST always supply
   some means of identifying the Job object in order to identify the
   correct target of the operation.  That Job identification SHOULD be
   the combination of a Printer URI with a Job ID but MAY be the
   (single) Job URI.  The IPP implementation MUST support both forms of
   identification for every Job.
Why briefly is Printer URI + Job ID preferable to Job URI again?
