They don’t see well in the dark is the likely excuse

They do this to give the perimeter cut of the green a break since that can only be mowed one way. If you do a "cleanup” cut everyday it will cause damage to the perimeter.

If you hit your drive to the middle of the green, the edges of the green don’t matter

Are golf shots on par threes from the tee called drives or approach shots? Hmmm

The taller edges are great to help keep your shots from rolling off the back side of the greens
