I don't know what's Ivan's reason, but I know mine: post-command-hook
runs much more frequently (since self-insert-command's are a small
subset of commands in general), and therefore its use is much more
likely to make Emacs less responsive.  E.g., cursor motion commands
will not call post-self-insert-hook.
