Because it becomes formalized. Which means people can write tools other people
can use to work with them.

Having the type embedded in commit message not only clutters up the commit
messages, but different people would do it differently, using different brackets
or putting it the start or the end of the message, etc. 

And of course it would be easier to ask git to list certain types of commits if
it knew about them.
