Having the map designed to promoted jungling would also, hopefully, encourage counter jungling from your team mates. The intent is to create a rock-paper-scissors where you don't know whether your opponent is going top-half or bottom-half, and you don't know if you're going to bump into each other in the river. The intent is to create more tension. Heck, the intent is to create even an ounce of the tension that you get in lane versus an opponent - the jungle shouldn't just be a safe place to farm gold.
