Well, technically since all bureaucrats are admins... you could make that claim already.
This way, you only need the support of one admin willing to promote an admin candidate that admins object to (but the community as a whole supports), and one crat willing to promote that admin to crat (given the support of the community and the objection of admins). If only admins can vote in RfB's, you need the admin community as a whole to support the willing admin's RfB.
(Did that make sense? I'm basically talking about a admin conspiracy, which is so unlikely that I have difficulty getting my head round the concept - it's still something we should aim to prevent.)
