Because people often take source files and copy them for use in other
projects.
As per my previous message, although people do this, it is not "safer"
to copy a file without an explicit copyright embedded within the file,
than to copy a file without an explicit copyright embedded within the
file. The explicit copyright embedded serves more of a warning for
people that don't know better to guilt them into thinking twice before
doing whatever they are doing, than an actual legal requirement for
enforcement of copyright restrictions.
