'Why not just two loop cuts .... One along one axis and then one more on second axis???'
Because in such a case when you loop cut by the slice lines you do not get chunks (you can produce them by connecting the corresponding vertices manually... but in cases you would need the object be cut to a lot of chunks the whole task would become extremely tedious). The image below is explaining the case (it first is sliced and then cut by the slice loops... as is evident there are no chunks around but only two dimensional surfaces):
