I think it's kinda like friction. If you're trying to lubricate your main bearings, you can't reduce it enough but if you're trying to launch from the lights, you want tires with as much as you can get.

Increase impedance and noise immunity goes down. Reduce impedance and you need more drive from the stage in front, or you'll exceed it and increase distortion.
