Why Do Recipes Always Specify 'Pour Wet Ingredients into Dry'?

Posted by overw8, January 17, 2009

I often mix my dry ingredients directly in a large measuring cup, then pour the dry ingredients into the wet, thus leaving me with only one gunky bowl to wash rather than two. Does the method of combining really make a difference when baking muffins, for example?
