There have been some theories floating around that they did this to avoid sanctions so they can share code with related Russian companies.
A more likely, but imo still not realistic, theory I've just thought of is that this was done to reduce intl intelligence services trying to snoop on Gaijin devs because they think could be classified stuff in their source code.
This doesn't contain any of the actual game characteristics though, it's just the engine.
