But it is GPLv2 too so GPLv2 client code still can link to a GPLv2 library

Indeed, if that license meets their needs.
One option is closed to a certain class of people. I'm not sure how many this has any practical impact for.
It seems the most likely case is non-free software which was comfortable with lgplv2 but not lgplv3 which seems like the explicitly highlighted case for the most part.
