Why do we pass the database client in the context

Hey there 👋 In the examples and in T3app we pass the db client in the trpc context
export async function createContextInner(opts?: CreateInnerContextOptions) {
return {
prisma,
session: opts.session,
};
}
export async function createContextInner(opts?: CreateInnerContextOptions) {
return {
prisma,
session: opts.session,
};
}
then, to make requests to the db we use it from the context such as ctx.prisma.whatever.create() I would like to understand why do we do so. Why no just import the client and use it such as import { prisma } from "~/server/db"; and then in the router use prisma.whatever.create() without the ctx. Why is it used from the context? What are the benefits? does it really matter?
