Seems like this recipe isn't intended to create a standard kitchen brownie, but rather a shelf-stable manufactured product suitable for mass-production and storage.
Of course it's going to have a detailed specification for standardization, but you can't expect the rubes to know that.
I'm a huge fan of MILSPEC in general. If you want to know precisely how to do something, in a manner which incorporates a large body of knowledge about how not to do it, take a look at MILSPEC.
