Couple reasons. 1 we do use pieces per case in the attributes section (specifically for variants when they occur), but the reason we have to use this method is because

a) attributes only show up in the specifications tab, which means the quick view doesn't show the attribute unless it is a multiple input attribute

b) attributes don't show up in the main product screen unless it is a multiple input attribute

c) attributes aren't visible on the invoice unless they are multiple input attributes

You can see from the module that it inserts the ppcfield into the quick view and product screen (over the add to cart button) and it adds it to the invoice. This is really important to vendors who don't sell single items but do sell cases BUT don't want to add the pieces into the title of the product because it is inconsistent when you have a variant available for some but not all).

You can get an idea of how we sell products and why this is necessary at our website https://glaspak.com
