Any reason NOT to use a 15A versus 10A solar controller?

I only need a 10A solar controller, but may add an additional panel or two in the future. Is there anything about using a 15A controller with a smaller panel (or set of panels) until I go bigger?
 
I have one 100w panel and run a 30 amp controller. Room to grow, going to add a 100w panel if one goes on sale black Friday..
 
Should be no problem to use a bigger solar controller.
The cost of the larger one is usually more, but if you plan on adding more panels in the future may make it worth it.

I did the same thing, room for expansion.
