Good question - i said the same when i saw it on a site and 
tried to consolidate wget + rpm into a one line command.

The problem (from memory) is that rpm -Uvh blah.rpm does not 
handle redirections nicely (is that a return code of 302? 
from memory) however wget is a champ at that sort of thing.
