Question Marker Beacon Sensitivity

In the AIM is states that when flying an ILS approach :

Aircraft with airborne marker beacon receivers with a selective sensitivity feature should always be operated in the "low" sensitivity position for proper reception in of the ILS marker beacons.

Just wondering if anyone knew the specific reason for using the "low" setting ?
