Convince me to stop swirling my v60’s throughout the brew

Obviously you're suppose to do a swirl/stir at the start of the brew, but ever since I've started swirling my v60's intermittently throughout the brew, I've gotten much more cleaner and less astringent brews.

I thought it made sense to keep swirling considering the whole premise of coffee brewing is based on evenness, so I thought this was the best way to achieve that and avoid channeling.

Is there a reason I shouldn't be doing this?
