I was told by someone who is way more in touch than I that this may be
from selection for pollen hoarding. Seems a pollen hoarding strain was
developed on the west coast...I think he said at either Davis or
Washington, and released in to the breeding stocks of the US. True? I
wish they'd take it back then. I don't need any more pollen in my
broodnests.

This pollen hording stock was developed at Davis, California. Hives can
be packed with pollen and colonies sometime suffer from lack of room for
honey or brood.
