I'm not too sure but I do know they use this glorified system to treat offenders like actual human beings, and after they get out, they likely stay out. I think it's based on the concept of physiologically.
"If we treat people like animals when they are in prison they are likely to behave like animals."

A little more on one topic:

"On leaving prison, a person needs to believe that they have a future. Without this, they can quickly spiral into depression and a feeling of hopelessness, which leads to an increased likelihood of re-offending."
Note: Lifetime probation can likely ruin a person's future even though it's not as bad as LWOP.
