The bulk of the viewers aren't the hard core who will go searching for results while they're at work. The majority are regular Joes (and Janes) that see any of these events other than figure skating & hockey only during the Olympics. The less buzz about results that occur outside of primetime the better chance they'll tune in during primetime.
