instead of Max HD for everyone, why not use the Average HD rules in the DMG.

cuz max HP accentuates the different classes better?
btw: don't misuse HD and HP
Myrrhl ~ Myrak ~ Myriarch ~ Dorkamyr ~ Myrauder
The New WDA-like-thing : DDO Damage Tool
The Path To Enlightenment: learning to heal in stages : Sneaking Tips : Raid Flagging Instructions
Cuz the game is balanced around the Max HD currently in place?
Whereas average HD /would/ decrease the difference between fighters and casters, you would have to: decrease monster damage, decrease the recently increased toughness enhancements, and possibly decrease monster hp.

I can't ever give you an answer about why everyone else does something but I can tell you why I do something. Hopefully that helps.
