#1 They're peeling away from the doddering home office, just as the conservative Evangelical Presbyterians are absorbing growing numbers of formerly Presbyterian (USA) congregations. (No link, but I read an article just yesterday; the EPs are quite concerned that they're growing too rapidly, even as the P(USA) are shrinking.)

Interesting to note that on the Anglican Essentials blog, some are suggesting that this resolution was actually moot after A186 passed, which declared that SSBs are not in conflict with the core doctrine of the Ang.
