Tailwheel

While discussing tailwheel weight I wondered why we need a tail dolly? Why do most modern sailplanes have fixed tailwheels yet SGS gliders have castering tailwheels. Shouldn't we have a caster instead? I would not enjoy moving the glider to the takeoff runway across the relatively soft dirt landing runway rolling on a tailwheel size wheel. BV
