The people who correct the tabs have no idea how the song should be played. They don't usually even know that you can play it in many positions and sound the same. For example, look at the comments of Smoke on the Water tab. Majority of the people commenting don't even know what they are talking about and have just learned to play the riff and of course think the way they play it is the right way to play it. Though I also like to play it in the same position as the original artist. But I don't bitch about it if somebody prefers to play it in a different position. I mean, they are the same notes so who cares.

Though you get a bit fatter sound if you play on thicker strings. And Tony Iommi usually used the three thickest strings when he played the riffs.
