Default Why are most shaver sockets dual voltage?

Out of interest, does anyone know why in most homes/fittings in the
uk are the shaver points dual voltage. i.e. 115 & 240 when all
shavers I have ever seen sold in the uk are 240v

Most shavers can be switched between 240v and 110v and has been said you
might have a yank visiting or you might visit a yank in which case you can
switch you're shaver to suit their supply. ;-)
