Well, if you land on the inners, then departing traffic has to cross the threshold of your runway to get to the departure runway. If the weather is IFR, they won’t be able to do that because they could interfere with the ILS. I’ve asked an ATC manager the same question and apparently there’s data that supports safer and more efficient ops overall with landings on the outers and departures on the inners.
