For the same reason we put new ships, aircraft, 3D objects, realistic graphics, improved sound, biologicals, corrected player U-boat 3D models and everything else we did.

Part of realism is presenting a realistic, living world.

That means having icebergs in the ocean.

Before GWX they were unavailable as well, due to being broken.
I guess that all sounds ok, I mean it is good to have such details where someone would enjoy seeing them. I would say that is where plenty of memory and a good graphics card pays off.
Yeah! Kind of like any other mod that has large campaign files... where the creators might have bothered to add anything interesting.

Go hijack some other thread. Your cheap shots are getting on my nurve.
