Because the poster I was refering to doesn't like bloodshot meat. A solid copper bullet like a Barnes TTSX retains nearly 100% of its original weight. Bloodshot meat is also a result of a bullet fragmentation among other things.
Driving a bullet at 3500 fps and considering the sheer amount of whitetail deer shot inside 100 yards. That's asking a lot of bullets that perform better under 3000 fps, where mono metal bullets not designed to fragment usually don't regardless even with impacts under 100 yards with high MV. Having a bullet that retains nearly 100% of its weight reduces blood shot meat.
Berger VLDs are the worst bullet for bloodshot meat I've experienced, but it kills about the fastest I've seen as well.
