I've stated this in another thread (can't remember which one now...)
Tesla's Service Center strategy has the capability to alleviate 3 main areas of concern:
1. Service Center coverage. Not only in currently unserved areas, but in areas that will likely become crowded with Teslas, like Boston and its suburbs.
2. Supercharger rollout. If they can manage to place Service Centers strategically based on both Supercharger need and Tesla ownership in a given area, the rollout of both can be streamlined. Not to mention, it's probably much easier in many cities/towns/states to get SC permitting added on to a few parking spots on your Service Center footprint than it is to negotiate that real estate separately.
3. By putting new Superchargers at Service Centers, Tesla will have the ability to "police" Supercharger abuse by some users, as well as eliminating "ICE"ing during business hours.
