Why was timothy nationality important?

We are told in Acts 16:1-3 that Timothy's mother was a Jew and his father was a Greek. Timothy was to be a great asset to Paul's ministry and so Paul circumcised Timothy. Why? This was done to aid Timothy's acceptance by the Jews and provide full access to the Synagogues he would be visiting with Paul and Silas. If Timothy had not been circumcised, the Jews could have assumed he had renounced his Jewish heritage and had chosen to live as a Gentile. His being one-half Jewish was important.
