A320 Center Tank Fuel

Hi guys,

I am new on the A320. Am wondering why is it prohibited to use the center tank fuel on take off? (FCOM 3, 3.01.28, page 2, operating limitations)

I know the center tank pumps will automatically be off (if under auto mode) when slats are extended & 2 mins of engines running, but I am trying to understand the logic behind this.

Thank you.
