It does? Why? What arguments favor it? I haven't seen a
single one, so far. Have you?
All I've seen is Eli's "`C-x SPC' is available", followed by
his "Why is everybody ignoring the `C-x SPC' suggestion?".
Reasons.

S-SPC is an even worse choice than C-x SPC.
The key for this command does not need to be particularly quick.
And it certainly does not need to be easily repeatable. This
would be a royal waste of a key that has such attributes.
Put the command on prefix `C-x r', together with the other
rectangle commands. Easy to use, easy to discover, easy to
remember.
