It’s more efficient, but not the only way, to broadcast an entire frequency with one type of channel.
A single frequency free would allow them to temporarily duplicate channels if they were intending to create more capacity on 64 QAM frequencies by switching to 256 QAM.

This appears to be happening. There are a couple of frequencies being duplicated in my area at present.
Some of the ad hoc channels have reappeared in relation to upcoming PPV events as well.
