Franco,
This is for flexibility. Personally I don't like languages that don't
allow me to do something.
AmiBroker allows overwriting OHLC arrays for a very valid reason:
it allows to to transform any array using indicators that were originally intended
to operate on price data.
So this ability was well thought.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
