Your ultimate goal is to have a perfectly smooth lawn. A chisel plow will leave it rough till the end of time because the grooves or furrows where the chisel plow shanks went will settle for the next couple of years even though it will look and feel smooth the first year.

A bare seedbed warms up quicker and the grass seed will germinate sooner, hopefully faster than the weeds.
