No point really. The Nyquist sampling theorem says that 44.1kHz is overkill, much less 48kHz or anything beyond. You only need twice the sample rate of the highest frequency to be reproduced, and human hearing generally goes up to 20kHz (less for almost all adults). Accordingly, many production recording equipment won’t even bother with frequencies approaching 20kHz. The only conceivable point is that you don’t need to resample files in higher sample rates, which saves you a tiny bit of cpu time I guess.
