What is the difference of putting a Dutch oven (with lid) on a stove or in the oven?

Some recipes I've seen, for example one-pot meals and a bolognese, call for the Dutch oven to be put in with a lid in the oven to bake for 2-3 hours. It would atleast make more sense to finish with the lid off to get browning on the top, but that hasn't been the case.

Might be worth mentioning I have a smooth top electric stove and an conventional oven.
