I think this comes from the American school of thinking
Even on straight DC layouts many of our transatlantic cousins hate the idea of rail- joiners being used to conduct electricity between track sections and live in fear of one failing during an operating session.
As such they tend to add feeders to every section and just to be on the safe side, solder the joints as well !!
Maybe in a country like America with it's great climatic extremes rail-joiners are more susceptible to failure........who knows
