I only speculate here, but I think it is probably for interoperability
reasons. I've seen some servers rejecting client hellos containing TLS
1.1 and/or TLS 1.2. I don't think TLS 1.0 is a problem though.
Sometime ago, I was thinking disabling 1.1 and 1.2 if the %COMPAT flag
is specified, but never did it due to lack of complaints :)
