Yes, this is logical. Because leverage got expensive nowadays with the FED and interest markups on several larger brokerage firms. On CBOE options you pay less interest fees for your leverage than on underlying cash stocks (and single stocks futures are illiquid). I see the leverage and interest rates for obtaining and using them as primary driver here.
