It’s to put you off applying!
Indeed, it is engineered deliberately to deter applicants, as is the sneakily cultivated idea that Pension Credit is charity - that would put off many who are proud to have worked many, many years, have paid their way and are disgusted to be reduced to pleading for a 'charity' handout.
Unlike those who almost make a career out of investigating all benefits available, actively apply for the lot and concoct elaborate fairy stories for the JobCentre about all manner of hurdles which prevent them from working.
But, honest, they really would if they could.......yeah, right!
