the other reason is related to why sailors were historically didn't know how to swim if you couldn't make it to dry land or another ship doesn't pick you up you die a slow painful drawn out death from thirst and starvation and if you drink the sea water it only makes it worse so it's better to drown or somehow off yourself than suffer that.
