Avoiding conflicts
Having nofollow for some, while dofollow for others would be difficult to explain to the content contributors. Sticking to a "nofollow" rule is peaceful.
Extra revenue stream
Many websites give a follow link only as a paid feature. In fact, this seems to be a thriving business where SEO companies offer paid links on many such websites.
Fear of losing SEO juice
There seems to be misunderstanding that giving follow links to others reduces site's SEO authority. Well, this only happens when you link to dubious websites. As long as you are linking to credible sources, you are good (and may even get benefits in the eyes of Google). In fact, on CutShort we don't do unfollow links at all until this point.
