is there any logical explanation for this rule? I mean, White gives Black an 
advantage in the form of handicap stones, why should Black give White a 
compensation for a small part of this advantage in return?

Since CGOS already uses Tromp-Taylor, which are IMO the most logical and 
cruft-free rules existing, I would vote for not using the compensation.
