For the same reason, any other transaction could end up with a snapshot too old error. Export does not generate any rollback, but there could be users performing DML operations on the table that is being exported, and the export needs to be redirected to read from the rollback segments. The likelihood of the error being thrown up especially if one uses the consistent parameter could be very high, if you dont have a large enough rollback segment without an optimal clause.

Sorry to press the point, but could you elaborate on how that "COULD" possibly make any difference for 'snapshot too old'?
