As I understand it, even though after Reboot the OS looks like its in about the same state with the wallpaper and same password to unlock, the fact that it hasn't been unlocked yet means that certain attacks don't work as well. I don't know why specifically. I think it's because the attack may still work but doesn't reveal any sensitive data because it's just the ROM, wallpaper, sim, etc.
