When just starting out, most people to do not have the means to purchase hardware, networking equipment, and bandwidth in bulk. Not to mention marketing dollars on top of that. Especially when they are not even certain they can be competitive and profitable in the market place.
Starting out with reseller hosting is an easy way for someone to get their feet wet in the business to see if they can make a go of it. After a few 3am phone calls, they might discover this business is not for them, haha
