One reason is that the two have different grazing habits and if they were not separated, there would not be enough left for the goats.

Therefore, you would want to keep their fur separate during shearing.
Goats are related to sheep for obvious reasons such as hoofs and horns, tails and fur (wool) but some think they are related to deer (more than they are to sheep) because deer have the same tail and they grow horns and they also have hooves while sheep have wool and deer have fur but goats don't have wool they have fur. Goats could also be related to horses through the hooves gene but that would be a short scientific reason why. We all originate from something!
