For a given mass and body length, the longer "A" frame facilitates the SA being further from the hitch, and in turn with that comes a tolerance of using a reduced noseweight.
This enables car's with lower noseweight capacity to tow a van of that mass.
That of course opens up a greater potential choice of tow vehicle; a bigger potential sales market, and as we see on the Continent some more modest cars towing vans than typically seen in the UK.
Looked at from a slightly different take, this also allows lighter tow cars to tow these mass caravans, still with good levels of the inherent stability element related to noseweight.
