Because 8.2 isnt 8.0.

You need to change your mentality when working for mega-corps - throw all
logic out of the window and realise that *every* move is done in such a way as
to protect someone's job.

8.0 is certified - 8.2 is not. We *all* know that 8.2 more than likely works
better than 8.0, but this isnt the point.

If someone was to install 8.2 when it is not certified, and something were to
go wrong, someone might lose their job/bonus.... and we cant have that. :-\
