Here's one reason: it's difficult to protect/shield your hand when you're playing PLO or 5-card PLO while using "big numbered cards." It's also easier to protect/shield your hand when playing holdem with smaller indicators, but I think one reason is good enough.
Maybe my opinion on this topic will change when I lose my sight, or rather, "have good vision but need reading glasses." However, for now I prefer the smaller indicators.
