I hope this explains the "why" to you :-)

That doesn't explain anything. Bets on opposite outcomes could be prohibited separately like many casinos do instead of prohibiting Roulette completely. And since the bonus is non-withdrawable, this strategy in itself would give no winnings anyway. Reputable Playtech casinos state that "restricted games can be played but they do not count towards the wagering requirement", but these rogue casinos take all your winnings if you play a restricted game by mistake.

How difficult is it to program a line of code so that if you go play a restricted game, you would get a pop-up screen warning that all your winnings will be void?
