Why does it matter when they read it? If they need more time for the meeting they can schedule more time. Only downside is that finding meeting slots becomes more difficult, but the total time spent doesn't change.

In addition to the reasons already listed (slowest reader etc) it's also good, at leasdt for some, to let new information sink in before discussing it.
I suspect these are not real issues. Most people smart enough to be an engineer read fast enough to finish 6 pages in 15 minutes(and your doc is bad if they can't), and discussing it fresh is probably better since you forget less.
