I didn't know about that decision.
I guess that when your developing a sim like these there is always going to be a trade off between the features that you implement and the performance that your trying to achieve.

Maybe they decided to model arid terrain because they couldn't get the right colour green for a European theatre.
I like the way tufts of grass fit in quite well with the landscape. Looks quite realistic.
