K3 - Why isn't QRQ the default?

Hi,

Now that QRQ switches out automatically when using SPLIT/RIT etc, why doesn't it simply stay on by default?

Apparently it has advantages at lower speed keying (seems so...) but does it have some sort of overhead which would require it to be switched out in some circumstances?

Just curious...
