Because that line did not exist prior to 2018.It was made green to bring attention to the info it provides when loading units into other units primarily guns / mortars into transport becasue previous to this change there was no clear way to know ( unless someone actually reads the game guide ) that gun load cost is the weight of the gun PLUS the number of crewmen but that green highlight extends to all units becasue that's the way that code is set up.

so it's not a case of "why is the load line now always green"...... there was no " load cost" line before this year....now there is and it's green

ok...I still don't like it (color) but fine. Thanks for the reply.

EDIT: To clarify, it's not the addition of the information I don't like, but the use of a color which is used to give emphasis to the information which IMO is not needed (the emphasis) while being right next to other bit of valuable information which can also take the same color depending on its information.
I am glad I clarified it.
