I don't care what's the reason, it loads up faster.
I know Microsoft is dodgy, but they already rule the OS/browser world, they have forced their ways on the world.
You know, following this logic, Firefox users actually waste their resources since they have both Firefox and IE loaded.

I suppose... but any browser renders a page in less than a second, the differences in startup time are much more significant. Mind you, I am not even satisfied with IE's load time... I think XP is to blame for my computer being so slow.

Because that would make much of the Web render on the new IE differently than intended. That's the last think MS wants - lots of (non-geek) Webmasters and users mad at them.
As for the rest of your post: Indeed, it's very bad that Microsoft doesn't publish any organized specifications for their rendering engine. I know they are dodgy and make things difficult, and as I said it would be ideal if everyone were W3C-compliant. But IE's current status gives us no choice.
