In the old days, one of the problems being addressed was mobile
clients on 2G/3G connections. Apps would hang while downloading a 60MB
or 80MB CRL. It affected Browser-based apps and native apps.

One of the work-arounds was short-lived certificates to cut down on
CRL size. Things have settled on 3-month longevity. Google
experimented with 1-month in the past. (OCSP has some of its own
problems).

It is not limited to mobile clients, though. Internet poverty is still
a widespread problem:
