Pretty much every house in the country controls the scoring by adjusting the pattern.
Why? Because they want to stay in business, people liking scoring well and if they don't they stop bowling.
Plus checking the scoring pace, can be a indicator of problem with the conditions that needs to be looked into.
20 years ago oil wasn't a aid to scoring? Yeah right!
A good lane man back when they oiled with a mop and a flysprayer could control the scores. That's why the ABC had to check the lanes after a honor score was shot, to make sure they weren't juiced.
