Why do npcs change stances so much?

[bilbous]

As shown by the npc text expert gladiators switch stance even if they are staying in the same stance. Then when they get down in hits they change stance even more often.
This was from a single fight with a single opponent.

  it's pending release, so not yet available in production. Will be avialable at the next server and client update, a few weeks from now.
