Honestly, the reason is pretty apparent why Avid did it thus; to accommodate later re-amping. 11R was designed to work most efficiently with PT and re-amping, with PT or 11 LE, after all.

Benoni's suggestion of routing the signal through an Aux and sending it at a higher volume to an audio track is a very good solution.

OR

If you have PT 10 use clip gain on the recorded audio. Or use Audio Suite gain if you need more volume after the track is recorded.

Be aware though that if you re-amp that increased signal with 11r or even 11 LE, then you will likely get too hot a signal.
