Redistribution vs Default Route

Trying to understand a network configuration my coworker made. We have a pretty beefy router capable of holding the entire BGP table (its not summarized, dont ask me why) from our internet provider. We are currently redistributing all of it into OSPF.

I dont understand the point of doing that , and I am sorry if I am being stupid here, when you can just offload all of that CPU utilization with a default route from our internal non edge/core routers and send all requests to the core edge.

Do I have flawed logic here?
