If you as a professional aviator know this, why did the crew not?
Because it's Longhaul, and as a result perhaps no-one in the crew had been to EZE before, perhaps did not share Wirbelsturm's local knowledge, and therefore were relying on the TAF.

Perhaps the more important question is why didn't the MET forecast reflect this local "quirk".
