Because the ECU doesn't know what its attached to.  It sees temperature,
throttle position, air flow or vacuum, and decides what to do.  If the
overall 'gestalt' of the target engine -- displacement, cam
characteristics, etc -- are close enough to the 'original', there should
not be much of a problem.  It gives you a credible starting point, and if
the ECU selected is itself more maintainable than the original, why you
should be in rather good shape!

And I have 2 V12s.
