This rule is needed because in considering how to handle the situation where both an expiration has occurred while also the position in which the expiration is noticed is gin, it doesn't really matter why the clock ran low. We have simply decided that "gin" takes precedence over expiration. In chess, if you checkmate your opponent and don't hit your clock before your flag falls, the checkmate prevails over the expiration. This is the same.
