Probably to get people to buy AF-S lenses rather than the cheaper (and eventually obsolete) AF-D lenses, which won't AF even when attached to a modern Nikon tc... I doubt there's a Sigma factor involved in their design.


btw: the optical superiority of tc's matched to the lens are a bit of a fallacy these days, used to be the case but not anymore.
