Is there a reason that this paragraph excludes inheritance from
atom:source?

Section 4.2.1, describing the inheritance of atom:author, does
explicitly allow inheritance from atom:source:

>    If an atom:entry element does not contain atom:author elements, then
>    the atom:author elements of the contained atom:source element are
>    considered to apply.  In an Atom Feed Document, the atom:author
>    elements of the containing atom:feed element are considered to apply
>    to the entry if there are no atom:author elements in the locations
>    described above.
