the key to this is that 4kids would effectively overcut and edit dubs because you need to submit and episode to BS&P and then make changes if requested. Any requests to edit it would be time needed to reedit the episode and correct the runtime as a result, which is more work; and 4kids was trying to crank stuff out fast.
They could've sent raw JP episodes and translated scripts,which probably would've been full of edit requests to look over and would take more time to correct..or more efficiently, they could just submit something they would know was BS&P safe, get no edit requests, and not have to waste further time corresponding with them.
With TMNT, because the had the scripts to submit to BS& P, they could submit those in the process early on and that's far more easy than having to cut around an already animated episode.
This wasn't perfect though, since infamously there was the Baxter Stockman clone body episode that was approved by one BS&P exec in script form and rejected when that exec was changed.
