Because the default is "tell me more about the maintainers of a particular file". which can include not just the default maintainers of a particular file within a subsystem, but the also info about the people that actually apply patches to files. For instance, a patch made to a file often has a nominal maintainer that doesn't actually apply the patches but that maintainer may review or approve but not actually be the upstream path for acceptance of the patch.
