Balancing tires

I am no tire guy but this is great info on mounting and balancing since I do my own. Ok here is a dumb observation, what is the purpose of the duct tape, because the adhesive on the stick on weight seems to be way stronger then duct tape. Duct tape rip’s right off and I usually have to spend about 10 minutes getting off the wheel weights and adhesive off and cleaned up. Am I the only one that has thought this, where did the duct tape thing come from?
