The excuse usually given is that it forces the team with the ball to do something with it. I think that that argument is dumb, because the team with the ball already wants to score with it. The rules merely result in run for 5 tackles and then kick.
I've had the benefit of watching matches from the 1960s before the tackle count on Australia's ABC2 and the game flowed much better.
Rugby I think allows for a number of different styles of play and the game is much better for it.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!
