53' x 102" Domestic Container thoughts.

The proposed container could work with (2) 20' containers in the bottom well as it would have ISO fittings at the 40' nominal point in the floor, where it is much easier to provide for the load transfer due to the deeper section of the floor beams. The difference is that a 53' container could not be stacked atop the proposed container unless it was the same design. With the WTP stacking location described above we already have a situation where only some 53' containers can be stacked on one another, those with WTP fittings. So my question is why didn't the container groups take this one step further?
