There is actually a good reason. If the 1.5 classes are missing, the chances that a 1.5 compiled class will run are slim. This is what Andrew John Hughes was trying to address with his proposal to implement the 1.5 classes as much as possible (using 1.4 sources). I haven't thought about it deeply, but on the surface that seems like it could be a good idea.
