Betcha it’s an incremental step towards having the logo of the sponsor placed onto the pokéstop in the main view screen, and the purple-framed field research tasks in the task list are going to have the sponsor’s name added, too. Trying to make damned sure the system is operational before being fully switched on, so that users don’t associate a wave of new bugs with the sponsors. ---
