Why would anybody edit my answer to change links to cppreference?

Today my answer was edited and a link from cplusplus.com was changed to cppreference.com. The edit comment was "use better reference".

I read this answer, which was provided by the editor.

The problem is that the word "better" is extremely relative. Better for someone is worse for an other. I absolutely don't care about cppreference.com and cplusplus.com, but changing links to an other website, just because you prefer that one is wrong. I don't think one is better than the other, but I edited it back to cplusplus. People, don't try to push your opinions onto others.

Imagine cplusplus.com is my favorite cpp reference. Why would anybody edit the link to another reference?
