I don't know. The only way I can rationalise those regs is that dry runways are by far the most common condition encountered by crews and so are treated in a more conservative fashion.

If the 60% of LDA requirement was mandated for contaminated runways, I'm guessing that it would be extremely limiting and would pretty much result in considerable disruption for operators servicing a large number of fields during the winter.
