FLAC vs Ogg FLAC

My understanding is that Ogg-FLAC is just a FLAC file wrapped in an Ogg container.  Is there a reason someone would choose to use Ogg-FLAC over FLAC.  Both formats support Vorbis tags, so I'm curious why someone would choose to use Ogg FLAC.

Streaming is one reason why someone may use OGG-FLAC over regular FLAC.  Internet Radio is one such example where someone might tune into a middle of broadcast.
