Why does plex insist on being in a group called plex

$

Trying to (test) install Plex on a new server that uses Samba AD and after it failed to start I noticed this in the plexmediaserver.service file:

User=plex
Group=plex

What is the reason for forcing a group of plex. As long as the server is running as plex, and all the files are owned by plex, I can't think of any reason why you would need to force a group ownership.

Anyone care to enlighten me as why.

Cheers.
