Consider it default configuration information. Basically what they are doing is, say you have a default udev rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d/10-foobar.rules, which is provided by some package. Now you want to override that default. You override in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-foobar.rules instead of editing the provided file. William
