Well at first heavy armor takes its toll, of weighing you down untill you have 50. Heavy armor also makes alot of noise while your sneaking. And honestly, alot of the light armor looks legit or at least better than their heavy counterparts, ie, elven over dwarvern glass over ebony etc. Of course thats an opinion but you get the point.
