The short answer is because they want to. You are going down a rabbit hole that will only lead to more questions than answers.
Then why do people here abide by GVWR and payloads so much if they are just made up?
And that is why I personally do NOT give a hoot about a mfgs GVWR or payload number which is based off of that mfgs GVWR
RAWR/Rear Tire MAX Load ratings are what I use
First off...GVWR is NOT a legal issue except for registration.
Pay for higher registration and good to go
Secondly...axle/tire ratings ARE legal issues.
Stay out or under those and good to go.
