Would you agree that a bat with a 0.48 BBCOR has less pop (aka trampoline effect) than a bat with 0.50? The BBCOR standard is an upper limit, not a fixed index. One of the most important skills of the manufacturers (and most expense) is figuring out how to get as close to 0.50 as possible without a significant number of individual bats exceeding the limit (and possibly triggering a de-certification). It's much easier and cheaper to err on the side of caution and produce a stiffer bat with lower manufacturing tolerances.
