I would guess this DX9 "because it says so on the box" fiasco is just another stall tactic and gets everyone to focus their anger on "those pesky DX9 folks" instead of 1C.

I would guess that the plan is to make this patch an official release one day, in order to make it official it probably has to fix the game for all supported platforms. DX9 was excluded from the initial Alpha and the small update to that, I suppose they decided that they needed to get DX9 in there now to get some testing data on it as well... that is just a guess of course.
