You are right to me anyway it does not make sense. However I was born in 1948 and I remember antifreeze was available as long as I can remember and I remember that just about everyone around her would drain water out of their tractors every winter. Most folks in those days had lived through rough times and things did not come easy to them for most of their (if not all) lives and since tractors were only used for plowing and haying and field work and not used during the winter why waste money for something like antifreeze when it was not needed? In my AC WD manual it cautions to drain water from the tractor before storing for the winter. Things were very different in those days.
