I suspect that they went with that format to be consistent with the rest of the reissue series, each of which combine the CD and SACD sound on a single disc. Since "Blonde on Blonde" was originally a double disc, they probably decided that it would be less confusing to keep with the hybrid format rather than have a single instance in the series that splits them onto discs with different formats (which would undoubtedly lead to people trying to return them as having one defective disc).

OK, that makes a little bit of sense :-). Thanks for the explanation. Patrice (who did not realized that BLONDE ON BLONDE was a 2xLP...)
