Why does the tractor industry use the ISO 7241 couplers instead of the ISO 16028 (flat face)?

The flat face couplers are used almost 100% of the time on other equipment such as skid steers and they are 1000 times easier to use and much cleaner. My guess is cost.

My guess too is cost...and not all use the 7241's either, many OEM's use 5675 AG style.
