I think modular seating is the type used in temporary stands ie golf stands etc. The seats are fixed on to a tiered frame in samll groups so they can join several sections together, instead of being fixed on to concrete steps like a lot of grounds. If thats the case it may actually be a good idea because it's effectively temporary seating so if the money comes along for a more permanent structure it can easily and cheaply be removed.
