I cannot tell you the actual reason, but as you can see on

    
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-javadoc-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/javadoc/AbstractJavadocMojo.java?r1=543685&r2=553503

the plugin was using &copy; in the past and I assume that Brett
removed it for a reason.

Apart from that, I prefer to specify the encoding (which might make
some sense anyways) over customizing other aspects (in that case the
"bottom" attribute).

My personal opinion, and questionable as such.
