It also is more durable a finish.

High gloss acrylic can be problematic sometimes as the humidity in the air can change the drying time... brush marks sometimes happen.
My kitchen cabinets aren't high gloss, they are a satin finish. I know it's an oil based paint because he gave me a jar of touch up paint and when it sits for a long period of time the oil and the paint separate. Every once and a while I will shake it up to mix it again.
