its all about relevancy...and the linking site gets its own relevancy mark...pretty easy to think relevant links will carry more weight...its not a case of ignoring offtopic links...theres no way to totally fine tune that..but if you work the other way round...its pretty straightforward for the type of modelling they do to spot relevant links and weight them heavier....

plus..IMHO...while you cannot determine marginally offtopic links....a large number of non-relevant links and poor linking structures between them (non-organic) may well see a negative impact on your site rather than just a neutral one...
