I think every patch they flip a coin to decide if they're going to screw with people and make random changes. If it comes up heads, they do, if tails, they don't. When it comes up heads, they spin a wheel to decide what kind of random archaic changes they should do.

I joke about it all the time, but I wouldn't be surprised if I were to find out this is exactly what they do.
