Why the hot water needs to pumped from the lauter tun bottom before lautering

If the mash tun and lauter tun is separated, the mash needs be pumped from mash tun to lauter tun. Before pumping, some professional and experienced brewers would fill the hot water from the lauter tun bottom primarily, until the hot water level is higher than the false bottom. On the one hand, the hot water can eliminate the air between the bottom and false bottom to avoid the wort aeration. On the other hand, the hot water can also pre-heat the false bottom&lauter tun and support the mash in order to guarantee the normal lautering.
