Maybe because there's a better chance of finding bookmoves, good or bad, for the
bookless engine, thereby increasing the probability of following a flawed line
(and a larger time difference). In fast games the odds of odd moves are higher
and a increased likelihood of both engines being out of book early. That's my
estimation anyway.
