newbie ports question

What is the use of specifying the 'r' switch when using the 'a'
switch?

# portupgrade -ar

Since all installed ports are targeted wouldn't installed ports that
depend on another installed port be upgraded anyway (if necessary)?

I understand the reasoning behind using the 'R' switch with 'a'
since
there may be new ports that are not installed that are required by
installed ports.
