(it also seems to discuss whether or not the prohibition against reading someone else's mail actually comes from this ban)

one possible reason (tho not mentioned w/ relation to Reb Gershom's ban) was written by the Ritba: "Where the customary practice is only to marry one woman, [a man] is not entitled to marry another woman in addition to his wife, since it is an implied term that she married him with the understanding that he not marry another woman."
also, i speculate that it has something to do w/ the section of the ban that says a man cannot force his wife to accept a divorce. if it was to bolster that, the ban on polygamy may just be a way of not letting men get around not divorcing their wives by marrying a new wife and ignoring the first one.
