Engine builders like to perform the machining work themselves, or have their preferred machine shop do the work. They don't trust the block manufacturer to get everything as "square" as they would like it. and they're probably right. So block manufacturers leave the block partially unmachined to satisfy the engine builders, it gives the engine builder more block material to work with.
