That is because you use your system interactively. But there might be no user around to do anything, or the system might be in a state where no action can be contributed by the user (because everything that could get user input has just broken down). Of course, we really have to look at the specific case, there is probably no blanket statement for such things. All errors that can be recovered from should of course not cause instant server death.
