Because the student would possibly be counting those hours towards the experience requirements for the issue of an NR? After all, it is dual instruction, and it is done at night.
The experience requirements for the issue of a Night Rating require 5 hours of instruction/supervision by an FI at an ATO, and the ATO will have to state that the required experience has been met.
Just because a student may misunderstand what the training they are receiving can be used for does not affect the legality, or not, of that training.
Just because 1 Day, 1 Week, 1 Month, 1 Year or several Years later a student may attempt to misrepresent their prior training does not affect the legality, or not, of that prior training.
An independent IRI is perfectly entitled to train a candidate towards an IR, and could even get them up to Test standard. However only a percentage (0% prior to the CBM-IR) of that training can be used towards the initial issue of an IR.
Whilst on this topic can the night landing to qualify for the landing recency in 90 days etc be conducted by a flying instructor with a student on board? (As a student is not a "passenger" as such).
I seem to recall this was debated before and have done a search but cannot find anything.

Hi Bob.
Yes.
A student is a member of the crew, not a passenger.
If the student were a passenger, and was paying for the flight, we would have to have an AOC to carry out instruction.
