Why (void*)p instead of static_cast<void*>(p) in C++ standard?

ISO/IEC 14882:2020
22.2.1.16 Note 8: The default construct in allocator will call ::new ((void*)p) T(args), but specialized allocators can choose a different definition.

Would you be so kind as to tell me whether there's any reason it's not ::new (static_cast<void*>(p)) T(args)?
