Perhaps he did it so he would have compaction in 2 rows instead of three when cultivating. I never drove the WF, but I don't remember any problem with compaction with the SF. I did ask him once why he didn't use an M instead of an H, as the H was boderline for tillage power sometimes. He said the M had too much compaction for a cultivator -- so he did think about those things.
