More space for what?

Message on my car loan statement:
Beginning next month, your new statement will be a larger size to accomodate additional account information to help you manage your account.
The current statement is approx. 8 1/2" tall and, oh, 4-5" wide? It's folded in quarters. The area above the first fold is an advertisement. The area between two more folds is completely blank. Actually, in total, the current statement is probably about 1/3 empty space. Also, the interest rate is 0%, so the only activity to report every month is what I paid and how much is remaining. For what could they possibly need more space?!?!
