Suspension Spin Bike

A local bike shop has a spin bike with suspension, why?

The suspension will mimic the feel of a real road bike when pedalling out of the saddle. The rider would be able to rock the bike side to side the same as when pedaling a real bike on the road. Some stationary trainers also have this feature

Why would you ask the shop when you could get speculation here?
