I've seen this elsewhere too, and find it frustrating that things can't be condensed into fewer threads.
Because it is annoying, that is why. I am on another site that keeps threads open and it is really annoying when someone brings back up a topic that is really old. It does not advance the discussions and often people say little about those past discussions. Also this is an officiating forum, not a fan site. Start another thread for God's sake. Heck you could even reference the old discussion. But quoting what people said 5 years ago when things change is silly.
