MBTA Commuter Rail (Operations, Keolis, & Short Term)

I have to ask, why does the T/Keolis do this consistent Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter schedule system, vs. just putting out new schedules when changes happen? Obviously this is a bigger schedule change with SCR and trains being renumbered, but most of the time no actual changes happen. Sorry if this is dumb, I’m not really familiar with the operations side of trains.
It's a good question that (I assume) has an answer but I couldn't tell you what it is. It's buses too, and it has impacts. I lost a job way back in 2018 because of a seasonal schedule change.
