My guess would be that it's just one of those "make you think you're getting more for your money" things. I mean, just think about the marketing. You look at 3 or 4 different brands of cheapo tape measures and can't decide which cheapo to blow 2 bucks on. BUT!.....Then you look at the back of the tape on this one and......HOLY SECRET BONUSES, BATMAN!!.....THIS ONE'S GOT A DIAMETER MEASURING SCALE TOO!!! WOW!!! So you buy that one instead.
