Banning punts and drop kicks forces you to play out of the back or as far as the GK can throw it (or the GK can put it on the ground and kick it). They are already playing on a small field. Tries to prevent GKs from kicking it 3/4 of the way down the field, also reduces the chances of of heads colliding trying to win the ball in the air.
Yep. Young GKs learn about distribution and all players get more comfortable with the ball at their feet.

Punting on small fields is pointless anyway. I'd prefer my goalie throwing / passing the ball to a defender and playing out the back to maintain possession, rather than just roll the dice with a punt and hope we win it in the air.
