There's a perfectly good structural reason for having chainstay and seatstay bridges apart from needing to have something to hang a mudguard off, even with disk brakes.

And what is it? Curious, not doubting it.

Increased lateral stiffness. The bridge forms a triangle with the stays, which helps prevent the stays moving sideways under load, particularly the chainstays.
