I would say because too many people don't get out and actually shoot their rifles enough to know where to hold. Therefore they read something in a magazine and try to adapt it to their next purchase.
I have talked to many people while working on a gun counter that shoot 1 box of ammo every 3 or 4 years, try and tell me their 270 is way flatter than a 30/06. Or their 300 Win Mag is slower than their 300 WSM, but with the same 180 grain bullets the Win Mag bucks the wind better and hits harder.
And my definition of flat is the 26 Nosler. I read it in a magazine!
