it is for a mod that was broken by the unreplicated behavior because it can't use it a variable store, Morrowind resets scale to 0.5-2.0 on save and load by setting scale to 3 you could detect if the player has reloaded since it would become 2 on load. Chris(i think was one of the biggest opponents of this "fix") because he felt that mods shouldn't rely on broken behavior, but ultimately it was decide to replicate the bad Morrowind behavior to fix the mod.
