Usually there is a need to change layer and continue on another layer so if the layer change buttons are used only one key stroke is necessary. Essentially if layer is changed while drawing a trace/route it make sense to insert a via.

Numeric buttons 1...n is used for layer change so usually layer change could be done with left hand without releasing right hand from mouse and this is also convinient for a common task.
