Money saving? Space constraints for hydro would be a reason, if it wasn't for the fact they appear to be the same size.
I don't know man.. money saving on €400,- shifters seems a bit strange. Weird Japanese people I guess ;)
Seems odd to even bother making a single port one if the triple port is the same size.
