Default Reactive caster

Question 1 - why have all of the latest 1/12th scale cars gone to the fixed kingpin non-reactive style front ends?
Question 2 - Can one of the suspension gurus out there please explain the effects of using reactive caster? I’m no expert, but it does seem to me like more caster would help the car be more stable while going straight and less caster under suspension loading would help to add steering in the corners. Is my logic correct? or am I missing something? If so please help me to understand.
