It'll be cost. If they can get away with just drilling a hole and making a bolt and not have to press studsin then I'm sure they will. Every penny counts
Any engineer will tell you studs are the strongest/proper way to fit anything together and stronger than bolts

An Engineer will specify studs
An accountant will specify bolts
