It's how they were designed to be played. Also I see many, many posts here using remis.ctg and 2600.ctg. IMO probably 50% of the time because those people don't actually own the programs. That's more the reason why people use these books, they are accepted as good and the excuse that the programs are then equal or we can see the true strength are simply that excuses for why the original books are not used.
