Random aesthetic question:

does anyone know a reason why the developer's made the stars that fly past battlefield in background flicker on and off every other frame? I noticed this in 20xx while doing a frame advance; the stars in the background are only visible every other frame. What kind of effect is that supposed to create? Obviously, when you view it at normal speed, the stars appear to be there continuously because our eyes aren't fast enough to see the frame where they are 'not there'. Why not just have them visible on every frame?
