Reasoning

The ideology behind creating a Definition of Done is to have a set of checklist which is common to all the Sprint Items and determines everything that needs to be done in order to complete a backlog item.

Having a Definition of Done will build a common understanding amongst everyone in the team as to what all needs to be done. It will allow everyone to understand what it means when a Development Team says something is complete. That is the kind of transparency the Definition of Done brings in.

The Definition of done also serves the purpose in a sense that the Development can now think and plan better as they know what is expected from a particular work item.
