Why people recommend it

Explains driving relays and relay boards from Raspberry Pi GPIO pins; people follow it as a wiring tutorial and ask whether 3.3 V logic safely triggers 5 V boards.

Watch for: 3.3 V GPIO driving a 5 V relay board

In their words

I was watching this video where the user explains that he is using Raspberry Pi to trigger the relay board, which requires 5v.
