Looks can kill.....

Was there a Recliner and or Couch above the mentioned supports?......

Might of been added to stabilize the floor some.

maybe added after the last inspector called it out for insufficiant supports when he rolled a golf ball on the floor above and it rolled back???

Hard to tell without knowing or seeing what is above them that might help explain why they were added, if indeed they were added.
