Bennetton used (were kinda forced onto) this tactic because they were on Pirelli Tyres which weren't as fast over a lap but were much more durable.
That kind of what they're trying to reproduce by forcing the hard/soft options. Problem is everyone tends to use the soft tyres at simlar times because that's what makes sence when you work out strategy timings.
