Why would that be?

What standard class glider do you have the most experience in?

Still Off Topic but

I questioned Andy when he told me to do it in my 19 (he had one too at the
time) So I tested the theory. Next time you land at a nice and wide runway
and in no wind conditions, let the glider roll out without spoiler. As you
start to lose aileron control (your wing starts to drop with full aileron
deflection) open the spoilers. And watch what happens! In my 19 it would
Instantly come back under control and raise back to level.

Made a believer out of me
