Or it’s security conscious. You know who your wife, mom, dad, siblings etc. all are but if they’re saved in your phone that way and someone gets access to your contacts it’s easier to, potentially, phish them because you can manipulate the relationship.
Otherwise they’re just a bunch of names that don’t mean much to anyone but you or people that know you.
It’s also not very good security keeping long text chains saved rather than periodically deleting and starting a new one with people you text private information too.
It’s always going to be a compromise between security and ease of use, just a matter of where each person falls.

I think most people’s conversation with their wife would indicate their relationship anyway. Probably a pointless differentiation.
Maybe, maybe not, but it could mean the difference between having your account emptied and not.
