You should read better before calling somebody else an idiot, he asked why did they compress such a small file, you went ahead of yourself and read it as if he said "why the file is small" implying that he thought the file was too small to contain the mod.
To answer you question Leaufai it's probably because they couldn't upload a file with the torrent extension on ModDB.
