Just some security/privacy good practice.
Depending on how sensitive your app is you may not want to inform the browser user if an email exists in the database. This information can be exploited in several ways(spam, brute force attacks, etc).
You may however want to do something yourself with that information like sending a message to the email entered(if it exists in database) informing that there has been an attempt of registering their email again and send them a password reset link(in case it’s the legitimate user) and/or adding information about the person that tried to do register (ip address, browser, location, etc).
So for other fields and other use cases this might a very good approach. Just be careful what information you provide to strangers
