Default Greens Aeration

I have often wondered why Source One, The Villages greens keepers, does not roll the greens after aeration. For that matter, do they ever roll the greens? I asked the operator of the aerator machine, he was doing the greens at Cherry Hill, and he stated that rolling would only defeat the purpose of aeration. I thought that answer was ridiculous. On my home course in Michigan, rolling of the greens was a weekly practice. I have often wondered why we can't have smooth rolling greens, that put true.
