Because of the part you dropped out of your quote. :) Some of the .conf
files can't be included. For example there's:

auth default {
  ..
  passdb sql {
    args = dovecot-sql.conf
  }
}

Perhaps some day that could become:

auth default {
  ..
  passdb sql {
    !include dovecot-sql.conf
  }
}

In either case, if dovecot-sql.conf gets !included in the root level
it'll generate errors about unknown settings.
