It's cause they're getting rid of the crap nobody wants. The cats out of the bag when it comes to gas and barrel length. With all the information available to us, why would anyone want a carbine gas system on a 16" barrel? They weren't designed to be used with a 16" barrel. Hell, the carbine gas system could very well in the near future fall to the mid length on 14.5 inch barrels.
Back to 16 inch barrels. The mid was designed for these barrels so why would anyone want to "knowingly" over gas their rifle?
Next time you're at the range, shoot a middy first and then shoot the carbine. You will easily notice the difference in the recoil footprint.
On top of all that, you have a bunch of middle of the road companies opening up gas ports which also leads to over gassing which puts unnecessary wear and tear on the rifle. Not to mention, it could be a soft shooting rifle had it not been over gassed. I won't name any companies doing this but the information is out there. This is one of the reasons I will only by from the top guys. I know I'm getting everything made to spec right down the the size of the gas port.
Late night rant over.

That being said - if you do have a carbine length gas tube on your AR then can't you mitigate theses issues with a heavier buffer (H or H2)?
**** PSA! I've been waiting for a 16" mid complete upper for 2 months! Nobody wants your carbine length ********! Eat a dick! Ok I'm done......carry on.
