That is mostly because they believe the benchmark for assessing whether PCC should kick in is playing to handicap (because that was the basis of how CSS worked) when it is actually a range of scores centered around 3 strokes higher than that.WHS assumes that play is year round and therefore winter scores will be balanced by summer scores, otherwise we would be faced with two CRs & Slopes.
I think that PCC was supposed to cope with this but despite the formula being changed it doesn't yet seem to have the effect desired by UK players.
As the PCC formula hasn't been published I can't compare it with the formula for CSS.
