Agreed. The answer of course is money. They put out several "additional" albums in the US - 12 songs instead of 14 per album, A Hard Day's Night and Help filled with 1/2 instrumental movie soundtracks and they also put singles on albums which the Beatles never did.
Albums like "Something New!", "Beatles VI", "The Early Beatles", "Yesterday and Today" and the "Hey Jude" album were all from Capitol only. All songs that were either held from actual EMI albums, or singles.
The US version of Revolver only had 2 Lennon tracks! "She Said She Said" and "Tomorrow Never Knows".
And Magical Mystery Tour was only an EP in the UK, but Capital added several singles to create the second side of the album. This may be the only good thing they did.
