AdminSettings.php is a standalone file that contains very little. LocalSettings.php is part of a larger program (the whole wiki) and is dependent on other files. Running a maintenance script does not require running the wiki. Two different things, two different files. BTW - since AdminSettings.php contains the DB user and password, it's not a bad idea to keep it hidden unless it's actually required. Rename it, move it to another directory, whatever - just don't leave it exposed to the web.
