You're missing the point.  It's not because you or I can't think of a 
reason, no one can. Your idea takes functionality away, just because you 
believe there's no reason for that functionality to exist. (Or better: your 
idea makes it a lot harder to do the same thing).

But, if you really want an example: try this:
--- START CODE ---
camera {
 angle 160
 location 0
 look_at z
 translate x
}
light_source {
 <-1,0,0>
 rgb 1
}
torus {
 1,.5
 texture {
  pigment_pattern {bumps scale .2}
  texture_map {
   [0
    pigment {blue 1}
    finish {
     ambient 0 diffuse 0
     reflection 1
     phong .5 phong_size 15
     specular 1 roughness .001
     metallic .5
    }
   ]
   [1
    pigment {red 1}
    finish {
     ambient 0 diffuse 0 brilliance 10
     reflection 1
     phong .5 phong_size 15
     specular 1 roughness .001
     metallic .5
    }
   ]
  }
 }
}
--- END CODE ---

Possibly this could also be done with averaged textures, but the code would 
be a lot more complicated.
