Default RE: High amp 5955 servos

My lithium batteries are always 8.4 volts at full charge and I have been lead to believe it's time to recharge when voltage drops to 7.2 -7.4 range. That's way above 6 or 6.7 that Hitec says is OK. Although my Xtreme Link receiver will take up to 30 volts so I should be good there. My question is why don't the manufactures take advantage of the higher voltage available and use a different motor/whatever to run at 8.4 volts.
