Why "Create chunks using the height data to add blocks repeatedly up to the desired height using the real world geology for that location" instead of simply add

Why "Create chunks using the height data to add blocks repeatedly up to the desired height using the real world geology for that location" instead of simply adding the top two blocks?
It seems unnecessarily wasteful of resources considering there is absolutely no value in the 'below the surface' geology in this demo.
Other than that, neat! Can't wait to look for my neighbourhood when i get home :)
