Engine limitations during tail/cross winds

Why jet engines have limitation for ground operation in tailwinds and crosswinds? For example, the 777 engines (General Electric Model) should be limited to 75% N1 between 30 knots and 45 knots tail/cross winds. And the 787's RR Trent 1000J should not be run for winds greater than 65 knots.
