Why 12 Shockwave also installs version 10?

When I install the current version of Shockwave 12.1.7r157, it installs this in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Adobe\Shockwave12, but it also installs 10.4.1.50 in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Shockwave10.

Does anyone know why it does this? Browsers load only the most recent.

Version 10 files are for backward compatibility with pre-11 content. Browsers will load the plugin if necessary older version (for example, when the 'PlayerVersion' parameter is absent or the HTML code refers specifically to one)<11>
