Wood working can be an expensive venture; this eliminates a large portion of the world's population from taking part. The democratic chair was specifically designed to be made with just a few hand tools, allowing more people access to the craft.
Giving as many people as possible an equal opportunity, regardless of economic status, is the core of the definition of the word democratic, hence the name.
