If the cost of changing the browsers is equal, why pick the worse behavior to standardize on? Why not pick the behavior that makes the most sense? The only reason seems to be to ensure compatibility with software that was designed to work only in certain web browsers, and choosing to make everyone cater to this poorly designed software, which has been disappearing because of its compatibility problems, is a poor design decision.
