Discrediting someone usually has a goal of pushing customers to another source though. There is no other source of this information, so what would be the point?
Destroy a source of historical documents so that the past can be contested. Sow doubt, confusion, deniability. Hide evidence of past crimes, or inconvenient documents. Plant documents, etc.
