well its possible its a result of weird porting differences. the playerbots code still had like 60 errors in it that throw warnings on compilation, unused variables, uninitialized things, etc. So it's a bit janky in places lmao

Were a lot of people working on playerbots? It could of just been one of those situations derived from having many communities where one person did one thing one way, and then people started adding code that referenced that, making it too much of a pain in the butt to fix the original code, etc etc.

playerbots is originally a mod for mangos that was started over a decade ago. idk how many people made it originally, but there were 2-3 primary people i think and then i imagine maybe some open source contributions. in the recent past (3-4 years ago) it was ported to azerothcore and horribly broken. over the years, and especially after liyunfan took it over, huge improvements were made until we got to where we're at today

but idk if the original coders are active or around, so a lot of work these days is slowed by people having to try and understand the code and why it is doing what it is doing

so more just a case of code changing hands enough times that the original intents/reasonings get a bit lost
