I can only assume that they're lazy bastards. Seems to be the only logical
explanation. :)

So have I!
Eg, just for fun, pick any item from the range of solvent weld waste
pipes
<http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/cat.jsp?cId=101249&ts=95697>
and see if you can spot the slightly confusing 'deliberate mistake' in
the product listing...

Well, I queried mine weeks ago, to no avail.

I claim the mystery prize!
Solvent Weld Waste - Straight Coupling 40mm - "Requires no solvent or
tightening"
Slightly puzzled by the "tightening", but not using solvent will certainly
make assembling the runs less messy. Another great innovation.....
