Because Honda knows that most braking is done in the front, especially in FF vehicles and they designed the system to actually have more front than rear bias than may actually be ideal because they engineer the car for the lowest common denominator owner, who may not be able to handle more rear bias, since this destabilizes the car in extreme situations. Those extreme situations could include an overloaded vehicle and/or sudden weight transfer from cornering. We're also talking about maybe a 10-15% difference here, not an even 50/50 split, so we might go from 75/25 to 65/35 to get ideal balance.
