DAWs loop recorded material along a fixed timeline. BIAB loops musical intent.
BIAB offers multiple loop functions because looping serves different purposes; editing, practice, composing, teaching, and auditioning ideas, to name a few. Some loop modes are designed for exact repetition, while others may regenerate new material by design.

Identical playback on every loop is a DAW expectation, not a universal one.
Band in a Box treats audio differently than any and every DAW in existence. BIAB is not a DAW and at some point the fundamental difference between generating and post editing functionality needs to be in your conversations.
