Default Why do we have NF and WF cubs?

First, I don't know if this belongs in general discussion. Pardon me if it does and I won't mind if it gets moved.

So... What's the deal? Why did IH make the switch to "wide frames"? It seems that the basic Kohler power plants of the same HP can be made to fit either. I like the improvements made to the WF tractors (for the most part... I'm looking at you QL tractors) but it seems they could have been a design change on NF just as easily.

So.... What's the scoop? Why did IH change the frame?
